Well let's start by saying i went there for date night and to finish celebrating my birthday Me and my husband wore dressy atttire , which was told to us that you had to be dressy however most people had tennis shoes on , so then i felt overdressed and i asked the waiter did they change their dress code and she said they kind of relax during spring/summer months . The food was good just a little pricy . The decore was ok , The music was nice to listen to However one huge problem i had was they watched us like a hawk while eating to see how long it would take to finish our food the staff would walk by every couple of minutes to see if we were done eating, I got up to use the restroom and when I got back my remaining food was gone !! For the price it cost to eat there I feel like you should not be rushed out of the place. We were only there for about a hour no more than a hour and a half, which includes taking your time to see what you want on the menu and waiting for the food to come out as well . After my husband tipped the waiter. She kindly said to us we have people waiting outside, so basically she was telling us to go, but the part that made us angry No one was waiting outside or at the door so I do not recommend this place if you want to eat and then relax for a while afterwards and listen to the music some because they will be timing you. also I felt our waiter was not to friendly. I have been treated better at other places and probably will not go there again.

Atmosphere, service, and drinks were great. Food was decent but crab cake was overpriced at $70. Music was good but way too loud. Could barely hear my dinner mate and our server. We weren’t served any popcorn.

Atmosphere and vibe is nice. Came here for brunch. Been here previously for late night drinks. The vibe is always nice. Brunch drink options weren't what we expected but the mini champagne and juice was okay. Pineapple, hibiscus and orange juice were our juice options. The orange juice looked odd so we didn't try it. The lemon cinnamon roll was amazing and I'd return just for that alone. The food on the menu sounded delicious. We were shocked our meals came out very very fast after placing the order. Later we discovered parts of our meal that was cold. The grits were flavorful the fish wasn't very crispy. That was disappointing. This brunch experience was lackluster but the time I've been before I loved the food and drinks. So I'd return to give the place another try.

Drinks were great. Atmosphere was neat. Pretty loud, but I'd personally love to see more places that have both flair and a dress code! Server was great.Here's the gotcha - food was ok at best and the entrée portions were tiny, a bit cold, and way overpriced. For the $77 I spent on my market-price crab cake dish alone (to quote Donald Glover - "What market are you shopping at?!") I expected more than two (2) florets of broccolini and a teaspoon of corn pudding to accompany it. Additionally, it's $22 to add chicken to a small $17 salad. Pre-tip price for two of us was $196. Woof.If you choose restaurants by it's vibe, power to ya, won't stop you, the place oozes flair. However if you pick restaurants based on meal quality and price, keep looking, you can do better, king.

average food and the crab cake was mediocre and cost 77 dollars and listed as market price. The average price of the menu items was around 35 -40 dollars... waitstaff should have given us a heads up on an almost eighty dollar menu item that was twice the average menu item price. Will not go back.

From the moment we walked in the door everything was perfect. A nice lady opened the door for us with a smile. Immediately greeted by the host gave her our reservation name she gave us menus and got us seated. Once we were seated a nice young man walked up our waiter and introduced himself he was dressed nice and very professional. We had a show to see at the Baltimore Convention Center so we knew this would be a quick dinner but this restaurant was on our list so we had to stop by while in the area. And we have no regrets we skipped an appetizer and started with our cocktails we both got a smoking mirror. It's was Perfect flavorful , presentation nice and strong what wise could you ask for in a cocktail. Waiter gave us great suggestions everything he suggested we tried. Next we ordered seafood risotto when I say melting in my mouth omg yesss! If I had to describe it I would say romatic, Delicious, Flavorful and mouth-watering! The last time I had really good risotto it was in Gordon Ramsey restaurant in London so I know a good risotto. Let's not forget about the ambiance classy, modern and just a vibe. They had a DJ music was good. Overall we will be back i want to try the lamb chops and the crab cakes. We will Definitely recommend this restaurants to all of our fellow foodies.

Ignore the dress code policy. We witnessed people coming in with athletic attire, jeans and t-shirts. The cream of crab soup was cold. My lab chops were under seasoned. This was one and done for me.

I came here on my birthday, and I had a wonderful time. The music was great! The food could've been better. The drinks were strong, but the overall experience was wonderful I really enjoyed my time.
The ambience is very nice. As we walked into the establishment we were advised to wait for the rest of our party at the bar. Once we sat we were greeted by our host who was attentive and courteous throughout the entire dinner. The music was a nice vibe and my party had a good time.
Drinks are very slow. Our waiter was not attentive, we had to constantly ask for things. They never offered/asked us if we wanted more drinks, dessert etc. We could have spent more money had we been offered additional drinks and food (didn't ask us about dessert etc). Our waiter did not inquire about food allergies and overall seemed very distracted and not present.

It was great atmosphere and the food was excellent and the staff was very courteous to our presence and it was a great time. Great atmosphere definitely will support this business yes.
The fried catfish and grits were delicious! The drinks are good but pricey especially for the amount of drink that is given.. most times the glasses weren't even full. The dj played great music and the staff were very attentive.

What started out as a good night quickly turned into a disaster! Love and hip drama. And all the restaurant offered was a round of drinks. If you want a club style restaurant, with potential for drama, this is ur place. We were seated at our table which was in the dining room but it was also along side the bar area. This was not our choice for seating. Ppl in the bar area were leaning over the short partition and our waitress asked them to turn around or move; which reluctantly they did. We ordered drinks and our food. Drinks were good but were a bit sweet for me. The manicotti app seemed like something processed as the meat (shrimp and crab) filling was ground up and if I didnt read the menu I wouldnt have known what it was. Then main course came. I had the short rib which was very very tender and tasted good. That got ruined by the same guys that were talking along side our table in the beginning. It escalated from loud talking to arguing to a girl throwing a drink in a guys face. To a glass being thrown and breaking over out table. We were covered in the alcoholic drink and had broken glass around us. It was only after the glass was thrown that the workers tried to escort the couple out. The whole situation could have been prevented if the arguing couple was escorted out when the argument first started.
