    Amazing food, have tried so many different dishes here and am never disappointed. Pot pie, filet, rigatoni, all of it is top notch. Cocktails are a big draw here too. Lively upbeat night spot for a great dinner and live music is always fabulous.

    We had a 7:45 dinner reservation in the lounge so we could enjoy JSK. Great band and music. At first, we were offered a table on either side of the band back by the wall. Not happy with that because of poor visibility of the band. Manager was able to give us a different table when we refused the original offer. Would be nice to be offered best table first. Other than that, everything was great!

    Attractive lounge supper club with live music and dancing. Generous wine pours and good food. Recommend sand dabs and grilled octopus salad. Slimman Band draws a crowd, so make a reservation.

    First and foremost, go for the entertainment! The live music was very good 👍🏽 now the food & service. The hostess seemed unappreciative of us being there! No personality whatsoever! Our server was very busy but not very kind, a bit short and abrasive. Waters & Ice Teas were never refilled. She never returned to check on our meal. It took a very long time to get our food, then it was not hot. The half chicken was dry, scallops overcooked, lamb chops not herb cocoas advertised. Twice baked potatoes were cold and dried out. The Caesar salad was very good! Co diner enjoyed her filet and the sand dabs were good. Overall, don’t go for the pricey food, just enjoy the live music!!

    Out for a birthday evening. Tonya went the extra mile to ensure it was special. We were seated in a quieter area of the restaurant and glad for it as we wouldn’t have been able to have a conversation in the dining area closest to the bar. Nice decor. Easy to get to and plenty of parking along with valet parking if desired. Generous portions with prices that are about equal to the nicer steak houses in the area.

    Host never brought our menu we requested. After he seated us he started chit chatting with another table for about 10 minutes. I had to go to him and grab a menu from him. The Kobe burger was just ok. Our waitress said she had eaten everything on the menu except the Kobe burger. I guess we shoujd have taken that as a warning.

    We go for the entertainment, Specifically John Stanley King, but also love the food and most staff. The hostess seating us this time was unfriendly and abrupt. She may have been busy but her job is to make people feel comfortable not a nuisance. I guess anyone can have a bad night. Our waitress was amazing. The food was amazing. Best sand dabs ever. Thank you for another fun evening, we’ ll be back for sure.

    Party of 2. Did not care for my dish. Ordered the lobster ravioli and it just wasn't what I expected. Not sure what it was filled with, but the lobster was a topping and the "butter sauce" was melted butter over top. 2nd dish ordered was the halibut. Fish was bland. Ordered a side dish of scalloped potatoes and that was very good. Our waitress was amazing & constantly checked on us. Yes, we could have voiced our dissatisfaction, but that would not have changed the dishes we ordered. The music was not too loud but able to hear it from our table. We sat in the dining room away from dance floor for a quieter experience, so this option was appreciated.. Great band and music selection.
