There was no body really to guide you upstairs, I ordered the salmon and it was uncooked..raw and all they said is they'll make it up with a drink. The calamari is dry chewy.. not fresh at all.

Even though we had a reservation and arrived on time we were offered to have a seat at the bar. When we asked when we were going to get seated at the table we were told that several people called in sick and that it was going to be bar only tonight.

Everything was great except the food was just ok. We had the wings and calamari and they were both bland and cold. The rooftop dining and service made up for the food though.

Went there as a date and the lady treated us like idiots because we were asking if certain items had liquor n her response was “it’s cooked in” not knowing that someone had legal restrictions and didn’t want anything to ruin their tox. Even though it wasn’t busy we were NEVER checked up on (2 other tables on our level) she never got us ketchup for our fries so I just waited till my food was cold and just boxed it up. I’m so disappointed, half the stuff we wanted wasn’t even available on the menu. NEVER AGAIN

WE WENT TO HAVE A MOTHERS DAY BRUNCH HERE -- AS THEIR WEBSITE, AND/OR OPENTABLE -- INDICATED THEY HAD A BRUNCH MENU. WELL, OF COURSE, THAT TURNED OUT TO BE WRONG. WE LEARNED THAT THEY CHANGE THEIR MENU FREQUENTLY, AND THUS HAD NO BRUNCH MENU AT ALL. IN FACT, I JUST CHECKED AGAIN AND THEIR ONLINE MENU IS STILL INCORRECT. SECOND, AND WORSE, THEY DID NOT EVEN SEEM TO BE OPEN AND READY FOR BUSINESS AT 11:30 AM, AND THE 2-3 SERVERS DID NOT SEEM TO KNOW WHAT THEY WERE DOING. THEY FIRST INDICATED THE PLACE MIGHT NOT EVEN BE OPEN YET, EVEN THOUGH RESERVATIONS STARTED EARLIER AT 11 AM. THE SERVICE WAS DISORGANIZED AND NOT GOOD -- THOUGH WE COULD TELL THE SERVERS WERE GENERALLY TRYING TO HELP US ALL, THEY DID NOT SEEM TO HAVE A GOOD HANDLE ON THINGS. VERY DISORGANIZED. THERE WAS A MANAGER MOVING AROUND WHO SEEMED TO BE OF LITTLE OR NO HELP. MOST OF THE FOOD CHOICES WERE WEIRD AND GENERALLY TASTED BLAH. FINALLY, THE FURNITURE WAS IN BAD SHAPE; E.G., MANY OF THE CHAIRS WERE BROKEN AND WOBBLY.

We stopped in for lunch since we live in the neighborhood, we were the only ones in the dining room. Ordered a turkey sandwich and a drink. Sandwich was pretty good. Service was average. When our credit card statement arrived there was an extra $10 tip added to bill (we had already tipped 20%). Most likely this was an honest mistake which our credit card company rectified, so check your credit card statements to verify the final billing. I doubt we'll go back but glad we were able to try another Jersey City restaurant.

The restaurant was almost empty, took 15 minutes to order drinks and another 15 for them to show up, they were never refilled. There were 5 of us, food came out one plate at a time, over a span of 30 minutes with the last one, an omelet, coming out burnt. The staff was apathetic at best, never apologized and simply made excuses. Will it be returning.
