Way too loud yesterday with the DJ. We had to leave after a couple of beers and go for dinner is elsewhere, as we couldn’t hear each other talk.

Great location in the financial district, service was very good, but the food was just okay. I had the spicy fried chicken burger, it tasted fine, but there was hardly any meat, it was mostly batter, they should do better for a restaurant. My guest had the grilled chicken entre, which seemed better. Nice enough place, but there are better options downtown.

Need vegeterian options on the menu. They were able to cater for vegeterian needs but it would be nice to have options on the menu to make life easier. Also, it is so difficult to hear the server with the noise level at lunch time.
