Our waitress was kinda rude. We asked for her to tell us the specials and she refused. She said it was a lot and she wanted to wait until we had the 4th member of our dinner party present. Then when that person came, it was not a lot to tell..... so a little confused there.

About the restaurant

Once called the Glass Factory and mainly operating as a wedding venue, we have transitioned into a speakeasy lounge that will be open to the public on certain days and will be available for events on certain days of the week! Still very industrial down to its bones, this hybrid space now displays a timeless art deco decor and upscale eats and drinks. Follow us on social to keep up with updated hours of operation, events, and more!
