    The restaurant was understaffed . To add to the issue, the hostess, servers, and bartenders were inexperienced and very slow. It took the hostess 15 minutes to seat us and yes we had a reservation. Then we waited another 15 min and had to request someone to wait on us. Another 15 min for our cocktails again after asking. Not a great experience.

    We came here for dinner before the Nate Bargatze show at the PPL center. Atmosphere is great but they are under staffed. Waited a long time for drinks at the bar. Menu was ok. Do not get the Charcuterie board. Total waste of money. Margarita flat bread was just ok. Husband had chicken sandwich and said it was fine. They have servers taking orders and running their own food. Our waitress had 6 tables and was running around like crazy. 2nd round of drinks took way too long to come out.

    The staff was attentive and the food was delicious. Went to pre-show dinner at PPL Center. We would suggest it to anyone coming to Allentown

    On a Monday at 5pm- we were the only ones there. The only two besides workers. Chef and cooks were loud and cursing. Food was good but not worth the price. Waiter was good.
