We felt it was strange that we couldn't get a drink at the bar while we waited for our table but got seated pretty quickly. Drinks were very good but food felt rushed. And the weirdest thing was you had to take an elevator to a different floor to go to the bathroom. Overall ok experience but probably wouldn't go back.
Excellent first experience here. Terrific cocktails, nice food choices, friendly servers, and cool atmosphere. Really enjoyed it and will go back.
First time visit, the food was fantastic. Service and hospitality was awesome! Parking was a little hard to find but expected for first time. Overall great experience!
On Saturday evening, January 9, I had a reservation for a party of 8. We were seated and our drink order was delivered. We finished our drinks and waited until our server, Andrew came back. I eventually had to wave him down. At this time he took another drink order and a fairly large appetizer order. We ordered dinner and proceeded to eat. I know that our combined checks were over $1000, but Andrew was not paying a lot of attention to our table. About halfway through the meal, a member of our party began to get sick. By the way Andrew acted, it was obvious that he felt that the guest had too much to drink. He had not. He had had one martini. Andrew quickly grabbed the second martini (untouched) and removed it from the table. We allowed our friend to keep his head down on the table in an attempt to feel better. As we begin to see that he was not going to be able to transport to the elevator, we asked that an ambulance be called. Andrew called the ambulance but told us that we would have to get him upstairs because the FD could not come downstairs. As our friend could not walk or stand on his own, two of our party had to carry him out while he vomited all the way to the elevator. The paramedics took care of him upstairs. What would you do if someone had a head or neck injury? Make the dining party transfer them upstairs. I am quite sure that a paramedic could have done a much better job with this medical event than we did, but we were given every indication that Andrew wanted us OUT of the restaurant as quickly as possible. There were 5 families represented in our party and those 5 families will not return and will definitely share this story. DO BETTER.

A very cool place, although difficult to find. It's like a speakeasy in a basement :) Food was excellent and the service was very good. A very creative menu.
We each had the ribeye. Cocked to perfection! Add onions on the side, makes a nice difference!! The service was spot on. I will be back soon
Cool vibe.
Quality cocktails, but pricey.
The new wedge salad is fantastic. Great meal and efficient and friendly servers. The noise level is horrendous.
Very nice atmosphere and reasonably priced Drinks.

Great staff, drinks were outstanding. The place was pretty hard to find. But that is exactly what a speakeasy style place should be.

Food was great and service was great. Drinks were great. Parking is in a garage next door.
The speakeasy vibe means it is hard to find..it's in the basement with little signage to guide you. But once inside we were warmly welcomed and quickly seated. The wife had the Happy Birthday Mr President cocktail and declared it delicious. I have simple tastes so a shot of Macallan12yr sufficed. We shared the crab dip and both loved it. Wish I could make it like that at home. For entrees we each had the pork chop and again it was excellent. We split a S'mores dessert. I don't generally like s'mores but this was a great presentation. Andrew our server was knowledgeable and friendly.
Had a little trouble finding it but we'll worth the effort
