I attended a family event here over the weekend. The atmosphere was decent enough. The service above average. The dishes & tastiness factor were well thought out.
The failure is in the execution. Beef is a big part of their menu. The doneness of the burger I ordered was atrocious. I was so hungry having worked all day w/o a break... I just ate it. I ordered medium & half the burger was well done & the other half was medium well. I'm not sure how that is even possible.
Another big negative is the stingy portions of whiskey. Considering the price of going out to eat these days, you would hope there would be some moderate level of generosity. I ordered a single glass of Japanese whiskey on the rocks. There was a large round ice cube (which makes sense) but the whiskey didn't even cover the cube. My guess, 2-3 oz. Then I ordered a flight of 3 whiskeys in mini pilsners. Each glass had less than 1/2" inch in them.
Those two drink orders may have totaled 4-5 oz. max for low to mid-level tier whiskey at a price of over $30. The overcooked burger was $23. With tax & and tip, this meal was $65. Even with the positives, I can not justify dining here ever again.

Bartender had such an attitude. 🤦🏻‍♂️
Nice room, ruined by this guy, we were treated with such disdain. He’s in the wrong business. 😡

Arriving at 6:50 and seating at 7:30, 20 minutes for drinks to come, and currently actually waiting 15 minutes for water that still hasn’t arrived, the customer service is awful as we were barely checked on, the serving sizes were extremely small for pricing and it was way too crowded. We waited over an hour and a half for food, and only got it when we complained. The pasta was cold and the wings were lukewarm.

Had a great time, the food was delicious and so were the drinks. Bridgette did a fantastic job bartending and even when busy made it a point to check on me and my friend to see if we needed anything. I will definitely be back!

So after running around town looking for a club or a bar to hang at for my out of town family we found this place. It was a cool chill mature crowd. Dj was good I didn't get to try the food that's why the low stars but I hear the food is good. Plenty of space to hang and drink and also dance.
