Safety seem a priority. There is security. Food is ok. The atmosphere is definatley great. Visited during a night when Sean Mac hosted. Shots were outrageously overpriced. Service was extremely slow.

Do not charge junk service fees. Do put suggested tip on the bill, or they will get nothing from me. This is not correct gratuity protocol. I don't tip entitled primadonnas.

A tequila and lemonade here will run you $22 with gratuity already built in. When I returned to the bar, the bartenders acted like I wasn’t even there. If staff are unhappy about tips being included, that’s an issue with management, not an excuse to give poor service.

A manager that goes by “Sticks” witnessed that friends of mine were drunk. He then decided to deliberately ignore me for the rest of the night I spent here. I said hi a few times to him, he looked the other way and decidedly disregarded me. There’s not any more to that story. It was objectively rude.
However, his entire waitstaff supported his decision to do so? Perhaps because of my friends (but they had left by the time I voiced that my feelings were hurt) or maybe it was because their standards of customer service across the board are just in the garbage…

Went hear after seeing it on TikTok and was very disappointed. Walked in and the 1st thing you smelled was Dirty Mop water. The smell was horrible. Then we ask for food menus and there was literally like 5 things on the menu, I guess that was the late night menu so we didnt get to eat because we didnt want any of the 5 things. We decided to order 2 drinks that costed $50 in which was made in a small cup not even in a regular cup LoL Inwas like $25 for each drink and it was in a small cup! Rip off, Thank god we didnt end up getting food. This place will be out of business soon enough with there prices on small drinks. Not to mention mopping with dirty mom water that we smelled the whole time there. I would never go back or recommend to anyone

The employee reviews are right !!!!
I went for an event and the event was great ! Great vibes great people but the employees were out of hand one in particular very tall girl with big natural hair had the night off but she made sure to pull her employee privilege card . Our friend hosted the doctors event and we were waiting to get in and the host came out to get us and she pushed us out the way and said she works here and her and her friend weren’t waiting (the audacity).. once we got inside we sat in our section and she came over and sat in our section then demanded we scoot over so her and her friend could sit down ! We said no we have people sitting here they were just standing up for a moment and again this was our paid section! She then got mad started yelling to her friend they won’t move over and then went to the section across from us . (We felt targeted as she was so aggressive with all of her approaches) A few of us went out dancing and didn’t realize no one was at the section when we came back the girl and her friends were drinking our bottle and mixers! We were absolutely shocked after they left and went back to the area they were in our bottle was half empty .. I would never recommend hosting anything here . It was actually crazy she seemed to be everywhere we were and trying to finesse. The bathrooms had no soap, the decor and furniture was dated and had tape on the section seats , poor circulation, The employees seem to have bad attitudes and were rude…our server was great which is why they get an extra star but the rest of them especially bottle thief made me never want to go back.

Service sucks , food sucks , rather spend my money elsewhere . Isn’t worth it at all. Wouldn’t recommend. Deserves NO STARS
First time here for lunch. Food was delicious. Great service. Reasonably priced. Definitely be back.
I was disappointed to find the restaurant closed despite having a confirmed reservation.

Atmosphere was not good , the place seemed like the employees were intoxicated. Furniture looked worn down ..No acknowledgment from staff for about 20-30 minutes , when the waitress FINALLY came over slurring her words I was finished. Really wanted to try the food but I couldn’t even stomach it .Hope the owner knows what type of service they have hired . If more consumers experience the same service I had it could really be the downfall of the place . Please keep in mind I went on a wed afternoon with barely any people so I can only imagine what it’s like when it’s busy .
Too many disappointments to list. I will never return. From the furniture to the food, everything was terrible. The attitudes of the workers were even worse. I won’t even mention the overpriced drinks.
The place was cool kind of overly crowded need a little more air circulation and more room for tables the lamb chops were good Service was kind of slow because of it being overly crowded the line was super long for the bar music selection was good
Horrible horrible horrible… best thing was the food.. service absolute trash.. waited for over a hour just to get our order taken on top of us having reservations.. the experience can go in the garbage.. I run 9 restaurants and wish one of my employees would.. everybody kept bragging for me to come here I coulda stayed home for this.. guess the staff had to kno u in order to get good service..they only cater to people they kno in the industry .. never again first and last
We were a little confused upon entering because we didn’t know if to seat ourselves or wait to be seated. And the server was a little distracted and walked off mid us placing our order. The food was good with nice serving sizes but the cocktails was watered down.
