“Great experience with superb service and atmosphere! We had amazing service from the bar staff for drinks/snacks and our table server. I wasn't 100% sold on the food as the flavors were a little different than other Thai food I've had, but definitely worth going here. Also, the portions were a bit too large. I think I would have preferred smaller plates with more sauce and flavor.“

“I met a friend here for their Flights and Bites, which is Wednesday and Thursday night where you buy a flight and get a free bite. It's a very cool, modern and trendy place. We sat at a table near the bar which had the the coolest teal lights. Our server was nice and gave recommendations on people's favorite bites. The wine flights were 3 different types of wines from the same winery. I'm not much of a wine connoisseur so it was fun to taste and compare. They were all delicious and a good variety of flavors. For bites we had the pimento cheese which came with these flaky crackers and pickled veggies that made a perfect addition. We also got the focaccia bread w olive oil. Super soft yet crunchy. I wish there were more. The hostess did bring us more crackers when we still had more pimento cheese which was so nice. They also filled up our waters non-stop. It was a perfect place for a girls get together. And it would make a fun date night spot.“

It is a cute art bar that is subdivided into a few different areas, including a bar in the front with outdoor seating, an indoor lounge further back, and a hidden beer garden in the back! There is a ton of modern art to look at, and the drinks we had were great. I will definitely be back!“

The atmosphere was cozy, not over stimulating for the amount of people that were there. I didn’t feel like I had to yell my order for our server to receive it, or yell across the table to communicate to my friends.The food was great, the wine was great. But best of all, was the orange glaze olive oil cake. Get it!“

We went in kind of an off time so got a lot more specialized attention than if we’d have gone during a busy time. It’s a cool atmosphere and has a lot of good beverage options. Worth a visit even if just To stock up on drinks“

Son ordered General Tso’s chicken but was brought orange chicken. Very orange tasting and had oranges in it. waiter said was definitely General Tso’s chicken because it didn’t haven oranges in it. Only good thing was I got 4 meals out of my order and tasted better after reheating and adding red pepper sauce“

“Just came back from our Wednesday burger special at the Cardinal. We used to get it when it was the Cut And Pour and quality is still outstanding. Enjoyed our food. Enjoyed our wine and cocktails. Enjoy the dessert. We love this place. We are in the neighborhood and we come all the time. It’s nice to have a place that it isn’t just your typical bar food that Wilmington seems to offer up a lot. The price point makes good sense you’re getting quality food and nothing was unreasonable. We are looking forward to them adding some additional specials from time to time. just maybe something that’s not on the menu that they can do for a week or so at a time.“
