    We were there before the band started so noise level maybe different when they are playing. Overall the service was attentive and we enjoyed the Cuban sandwich. This was our second time at this restaurant and both times we were pleased with the food and service.

    Went on a Sunday for dinner. Large dining area with only 2 other parties. Service was good. Burgers were fine but not memorable. Side salad was nice. Tables could have been a little cleaner. Atmosphere didn’t play on the periodic table theme much. Didn’t impress enough for a return visit.

    It's a good place but it just doesn't really align with the name. The food is great but bang for the buck wise? Could do better than that.

    Our experience on Valentine’s Day was not great. The bar had a singles mixer that greatly impacted the service in the dining room. The mediocre rating wan not a reflection on the food or staff, but on the management as the impact on the bar event was not managed well and negatively impacted the experience in the dining room. 1st drink orders took 45min to arrive (glass of wine, 2 beers and a canned seltzer). Entrees didn’t come out together: 20 min from first to last entree delivered, salad arrive w/o dressing with the meal instead of prior (which was request multiple times). Whole experience took over 2 hrs…not what I was expecting. I have dined here before without issue…but this past experience was not a good one.

    We went to the restaurant for the Jazz Brunch, the music was perfect! Bottomless Mimosa's were delish. We felt that the brunch buffet was priced very high ($35) for food that appeared to be sitting out for a while, or at least it looked like it had been out for a while. So we ordered from the menu. Our server was excellent, but the atmosphere seemed kinda cold, not warm and friendly. We will visit again, maybe for dinner next time.

    Upon entering the restaurant, at least five people passed by us without a word. When we were finally acknowledged, we still had to wait to be seated. Once we were at our table, the server hurried us to place our order. Additionally, a runner who brought food to our table seemed to mock me for no apparent reason, which felt like bullying. It was strange. We also weren't informed about when salsa night began or that there would be a cover charge. It wasn't until we had been there for two hours that someone finally told us we needed to pay for salsa night. This place was odd. The food, service, & cleanliness is a -1. I won't be coming back.
