Review – January 11, 2026 (Afternoon / Brunch)
Stopped in during the afternoon and caught the brunch service. My burger order came out with home fries instead of French fries, which appeared to happen because staff were distracted watching a soccer game on the television.

The food was just okay overall. The grilled chicken salad was under-seasoned, and while the espresso martini and rum punch were acceptable, nothing stood out.

Between...

We hosted an event for about 85 people at the 801 rooftop and it was perfect! Rob was so communicative, professional, and easygoing. He helped us adjust when we had some changes in the head count and he truly made the process so easy! The rooftop was decorated so nicely, drinks were cheap and good, and the service was excellent. Shoutout to Kevin for excellent bartending! And Sean for checking ids! And of course Dj DJ! I definitely recommend for your next event.

I made a last minute reservation pretty easily and it wasn't super busy, we came here on Sunday at 11:30 AM. We did have issues finding parking but it is street parking, not sure if there are any parking garages in the area.

The reservation was made for the 1st floor but they didnt have issues moving us to the 2nd floor and it was so cute. There were string lights and good music. I ordered the Rubber Ducky cocktail which was super cute but not super tasty....
