While staying at The Darcy, I ventured one breakfast session here, out of curiosity. I went for their Waffle dish and it came with a lovely presentation. The blueberry compote was delicious, and I wish there was more. The waffle was crispy throughout and clearly, well made.Would I come here again, maybe not. The prices here are quite high, especially in comparison to the Johnny Rockets next door. This restaurant is great for dinner, either through a work meeting, or for a special occasion.

Mediocre breakfast at best. Weird vibe with no music and equipment humming sounds dominating the atmosphere. Bloody Mary was served with a completely wilted celery stick. Entree did not match menu description and ambivalent staff. Would not recommend.

The food and service were both very good. I can recommend the Salmon bibimba and tiffin salmon in particular, the Brussel Sprouts and tomato/watermelon/burrata starters and all the deserts. Weeknights are quiet.

It was a beautiful early springlike day when I dined here so I requested a table outside. The food was delicious - I had the brussel sprouts appetizer and the chicken tagine. Excellent flavors in both. My server was very kind and helpful. I splurged on the crunch bar dessert which was delightful! I will definitely return for another meal.

I booked this restaurant based on everything I saw online on their IG page as well as the website but the heavily boosted oysters and seafood options that are posted everywhere are not available. The site shows raw bar hours but last night our server told us that the raw bar is. It open until April. Although the staff was polite they were not knowledgeable at all. I also wanted to order the smoked Manhattan for my husband since I have seen it all over their Instagram but surprise! They no longer offer it. For myself I wanted a smoking drink that I had seen promoted and not one but 2 servers looked over the menu confused trying to figure out which was the correct one. The second waiter was “SURE” that it was one particular drink, shortly after, my waiter came back and said it was something else. Oh! I almost forgot to mention. The leather on the seats of our booth was peeling off. I honestly had not seen that in a restaurant since I was probably a teenager. The expectation is that the establishment is well kept. The food that we ordered was good though. We had the Korean wings, indian tacos, and brussel sprouts. We didn't order much food because we were over it quickly and it did not feel like a dining experience. We figured that we would just order quick bites to put on our stomach before heading out for the night.

OpenTable allowed me to select the outside patio but upon arrival I was told the section was closed. As a person who has worked in front and back of the house and management positions in restaurants and within the software industry, this seemed to be an area of miscommunication between the software and the establishment. This was the only part of the experience I found lacking. The host team was thrown off but were at least open to asking a server if they would take me outside, though they weren't sure about the heat lamp - something else I made a notation about in my reservation, leading me to believe the restaurant does not actually review the OpenTable reservations ahead of time. I'm recovering from a head injury and have sensory processing issues so it can negatively affect my health if I'm thrust into a loud enclosed environment for an extended period of time. I asked the hosts if they could find a quieter booth for me and they perked up. The person who pours the water and busses the tables was well trained, courteous and warm. The server, Deshawn, made up for my irritation with the seating. He was timely, professional and put me at ease. The food was delectable and the drinks well balanced between bubbly and fruit juice. I would go back for the food but would call ahead versus using open table again. As someone who has been on both sides, it is extremely important when establishments use software to make sure it is being monitored properly. If the outside section was going to be closed, especially because I was a guest at the hotel, that could easily have been communicated to me.

Stopped by the bar after hearing great things about this establishment and it did not disappoint. Had a seat at the bar since I was visiting solo. Was welcomed by Haley and she was able to provide a great menu recommendation. She was very attentive, even while busy tending to the bar and multiple tables. I tried their version of the espresso martini and it was great. Will definitely be returning to try the food and more amazing cocktails.
