Meet friends at happy hour. Good selection but a little high for happy hour. The bar food was alright and priced well.

The placed is under staffed. Waited long time for food. Then the app was delivered the same time as the meal. The app was hot but the 5 dinners were cold. Ever try cold French fries?? I think the food would have been fine IF it was served hot and in a timely fashion. The hotel where we stayed said this is a common complaint of the place. Then why bother going if the Management can't or won't execute!!

It was not a happening place and they are obviously struggling financially because "happy hour" was just $8 glasses of wine being $7. Wait staff was great though.

As a tenant in Elevation, I really want this place to thrive. It's got some solid fundamentals - very good alcohol list including some unusual gins like Nolet. A great space. And a convenient location for the 400 of us who live above it. But every time I am there I have the same experience: indifferent servers who don't know what's on offer in terms of liquor and who don't seem to understand that the drinks always need to come before the apps; a bar that takes 20 minutes to get a round of drinks done, even when not crowded; a kitchen that either rushes me or takes forever, again regardless of the size of the crowd. And worst, management that seems impervious to suggestions or to apologies when things get screwed up.

Food was good but it's a small space so with three TVs and music playing, it's very difficult to have a conversation with friends. Also, the waiter was over tasked. We waited 15 minutes for our drinks and were not offered refills.

Place is ok l, although it lack a bit of soul. Food is just ok and it is very expensive, specially for being a neighborhood restaurant. Caesar salad with chicken or steak, $18/$20, main dishes between $18 and $26. No wine list by the bottle. Service was sweet although clearly not very experienced, but it is fine. They just started, so they will probably improve. We'll come back in a few months.

We were looking for a restaurant in the area and there were not that many options. We had great service - very personable, the food was pretty good too - but it was dead so it kind of lacked atmosphere.

It took us 2 hours to complete our meal and that was very difficult with our active toddler. To boot, the place was nearly completely empty so it didn't make sense that the kitchen was so slow.

We went to Union Social with a big group for brunch and had a great time. Our server was great, think it was Christopher. The food was good and the drinks were great as well. We had a great time. We live in the neighborhood and will be back for sure.
