    The beginning of my experience was at the bar and it was great! The bartender was very nice and attentive. She even got a sell up when suggesting we order a HH bite before HH was over. I say sell up because we were really just there for a drink before dinner. This when when things went not so great. We had a female waitress who came by twice to ask for our order. Our response was we hadn’t had a chance to look over the menu. We were 3 friends catching up. A little later we have a new waiter who told us our original waitress shift was over. We realized this was not true as we saw her for the remainder of the evening waiting on the table next to us. The new waiter started off good, very energetic and nice but once we got our food we never saw him again. Never checked on us, no beverage refills. He reappeared right before it was time to close asking if we wanted dessert. We had planned on ordering dessert and 2 additional cocktails but after the experience we were ready to leave. I wanted to speak with the manager but I saw he was busy and it was at the end of the night so I didn’t. I’ve eaten here numerous times and never had issues but this was not pleasant at all.

    Service was great. I wasn't crazy about what I ordered (food or drinks), but based on other Union Kitchen locations I've been to and other menu items I've ordered, I can't talk down on it too much. Maybe I just ordered food & drinks that didn't gel with my taste buds.

    We had a wonderful dining experience. Our server, Alex, was an absolute doll and the manager, Laura, was just as pleasant. We all really enjoyed our meals and will definitely be back soon.

    Food and service was good, but we had to wait 45 minutes to be seated even with a reservation. The management of the restaurant needs to be improved

    I made an Open Table reservation but when I arrived, I was told that because I made the Open Table reservation on the same day as the reservation, there was no table for me and I would need to wait for 15 minutes. As that didn’t sound right, I asked why it allowed me to book. The hostess said this happens all the time. I asked if we could wait at the bar and was told yes. No one ever came to get us at the bar. We were never seated at a table. We ended up eating at the bar, and I made the manager aware on our way out, mentioning what the hostess had shared. The manager told me that was not correct.
