Service with Sydney was great. Food was well prepared - one of the best Pappardelle dishes I’ve had outside of Italy. The noise depends on the number of guests present. Happy hour could use a few more appetizers. Overall a great place to unwind, party a little, or have a great meal.

Place was so under staffed. Their servers did everything they could have. Kitchen was way too small for the size of the restaurant. We waited over an hour to order our food and over another hour to get it. We were about to walk out when our food finally arrived. At least one other table walked out for the same reason. Food was not very good either. I had the Philly cheesesteak, more like a beef dip, meat was so dry and over cooked. Best part of it was the bun. Will not go back

The service was slow. The waiter did not take our dinner order until we finished our cocktails. The food was good, but not spectacular. The decor was kind of trendy, but the vibe felt like a hotel restaurant as the restaurant was quite empty for a Saturday night. I don’t have any urge to come back.

The server was fantastic and helpful. Thegluten free bun option for the beef dip was falling apart even before it arrived (possible source another option like Promise Bakery?) but the food was very tasty in its entirety. My colleagues were all completely satisfied with their meals and the real chips are a great touch.

We were looking forward to a lovely brunch and were disappointed that it closed earlier than advertised. The signage outside and online differed. 1030 closure seems a bit early on a Sunday! The manager on duty was great and worked hard to remedy the situation. The food, drinks and service was great and saved the day!!! Thank you!

Great experience. They were also agile with our booking. We had a 7pm that we had to move ~24 hours in advance, and they were fortunately able to accommodate us. Server was fun and friendly and very helpful. Food was 10/10. Setting was warm and welcoming. We very much enjoyed it overall.

My husband and I were looking forward to a nice evening out , unfortunately we were very disappointed. The service was very slow although I understand restaurants are understaffed. The mediocre food was expensive ($19 for a burger) and everything seemed very disorganized. We were comped one of my husbands beers due to the delays but I would have rather paid full price and left a generous tip if it would have meant having an enjoyable night out.
