Don’t eat here with a party of 6 or more. Tip is included with parties that large & the service was terrible. Nobody was ever asked for a refill & we waited 15 min with empty plates before he noticed us and brought our check.

We celebrated my birthday here. The food was delicious food and my family appreciated the seating options. A family member has Vertigo and can only sit in booth areas. It is nice to have an upscale option for them to enjoy a great night out.

Went here with my girls, Tha Chatroom. The ambiance is nice. They need to lighten it up a little more because it's pretty dim in there. I ordered a raspberry cadillac margarita in the rocks, and it was good. I ordered an appetizer, which was spinach dip, and I didn't consider this a shareable. For dinner, I ordered the bacon cheeseburger and a side of mashed potatoes when I tasted my friends. The portions are hit or miss depending on what you order, the raviolis will have you going to eat afterward. The chicken and mashed potatoes looked great.

I'd say try it. ... but I don't need to go back.. ..

Gastropub? In 40+ years as a Master Chef I’ve eaten in so called gastropubs. This isn’t one of them. Mediocre restaurant at best. Poor service, pretentious servers, grossly over priced food. Just pedestrian at best. Drop the label it’s false. Better food in some local quick service options.

Parking: Horrible. Not enough spots.

Customer service was fantastic! Everyone was so nice and attentive. The food and drinks were good too. Only drawback is the portion sizes compared to the price. I would come back just not very often with the prices. Overall I would recommend checking it out

Great cocktails and an awesome patio! Perfect for sunsets and evening occasions. Check out their Old Fashioned Cocktails.

Went for a Sunday evening to celebrate our Anniversary. Sat at the bar for a couple cocktails. Decent wines by the glass at $10-15 price point. Martini was a solid pour. After cocktails we moved to a table outside. The decor is pleasant both indoors and outside. The employees are very young, and are still learning the business. I ordered the bone in pork chop. I had asked for medium rare but was told everything comes out medium. Mine came out well done, on the dry side and missing that juicy pork taste I was craving. We also ordered the Caesar salad, which was served wedge style. The risotto was cooked well and had good flavor.
They add a mandatory 3% charge for kitchen staff to the bill. We paid this added fee for our bar tab despite not ordering food, and again on our final tab. I wasn't happy that I had to reward the kitchen staff for overcooking my chop. Apparently, when you're guaranteed a tip, you really don't have to perform.
We would go back for drinks and appetizers, but there are better options for the money when it comes to entrees.

Me and my friends have been here at least four times. I visited this place today with a friend, and while our experience started off positively, it took a rather disappointing turn at the end. Our server, Antonio, was attentive and friendly at first, making us feel welcome and ensuring we had everything we needed.

However, when it came time to settle the bill, we noticed a 3% kitchen gratuity added to our check. We adjusted our tip accordingly because we believe it's essential to reward service properly, and we didn't feel it was appropriate to pay extra for the cooks, especially when we're already paying for the food itself.

To our surprise, when our server noticed the reduced tip, he reacted quite aggressively, raising his voice and expressing his discontent. He mentioned needing to account for taxes and then dismissed us with, "do whatever," before walking away. We were taken aback by his outburst and felt uncomfortable after such an unexpected confrontation.

As customers, we enter a restaurant to enjoy a meal and support the business. We shouldn't feel obligated to cover a portion of employees' wages beyond the service we've received. My belief is that every worker should strive to give exceptional service regardless of personal circumstances, which is what customers appreciate.

Based on this experience, we won't be returning to this restaurant. It’s disheartening when a business doesn’t cultivate an appreciation for its customers. I sincerely hope management addresses this attitude, as a welcoming environment is crucial for any restaurant’s success.
