    We had asked for bar seating, but didn't get a table there. With that, we were seated right away and server was great.

    my hamburger was completely raw inside. I ordered it medium. i was eating and got to the raw center and it was disgusting. I told the waitress but she barely acknowledged me.

    The worst service and meal we have had in a long time. Over 30 min for drinks orders and longer for food which was overcooked and cold by the time it got to the table. And no one (manager or server) seemed care. Won’t return. Give your business to another establishment in the neighborhood.

    Didn't have a server stop by for well over 40 minutes after being seated. I flagged someone down after 25 minutes and got a sarcastic comment indicating that someone would be coming. A group sat next to us and were served immediately and we needed to ask again after that before seeing a server.

    Nothing about this experience will encourage giving it a second chance. Very limited choice of alcohol (don't believe claim for "craft cocktails" ); salmon on salad was old fish, should have never been put on a plate; overcharged for substituting salmon for chicken (should have stayed with the chicken); staff did not seem to care. Ambience is not "retro" - mostly "old." Really, nothing redeeming about the experience, except they had a decent pizza.

    Food was good but service was poor. Had to wait a while to order, and then got the wrong pizza. She apologized, but she should have written my order down instead of “memorizing” it!
