This is a great place!!! They have music, great food and amazing happy hour. We’ve been here quite a few times and we always have a great time. Staff is friendly and they try to accommodate you the best way they can! 5 stars from me, guys! Keep it up!!! 👍🏻 ✨

Food was just okay but the noise level in the dining room was terrible.

Terrible food, the worst ribeye I’ve ever had. The service is inattentive, so many mistakes with order.

Had a GREAT time! The scene is great Drew was on the mic we were singing and dancing can't wait to go back! Gonna bring my husband next time. Only thing is downstairs was too cold so we stayed on first floor but that was more fun anyway with the great music.

Lucy's Martini was my favorite, live music singer... great relaxed atmosphere. A little short staffed for a Saturday night, service was a little slow. Our dinner food came out at the same time as our appetizers, and instead of refiring it, you could clearly see it sat under a heat lamp. We ordered a bottle of each San Pellegrino and Aqua Panna waters when we first sat that didn't come until we asked for them a second time.

Kid-friendliness: Not for kids..

Wheelchair accessibility: Dining Room and Speakeasy are either elevated or below the ground floor. Their is a private area on the ground floor for a small dinner party... that would be accessible.

Last weekend, I had the pleasure of giving my niece and her husband a surprise 25th wedding anniversary party in Lucy's Parlor. I can't tell you how awesome it went, due to the attentiveness, patience and quality of the food and atmosphere. The staff was AMAZING and I wouldn't hesitate to do another event or just go for dinner and drinks. They definitely have found a regular customer in me. P.S. my friends and family are still commenting on how wonderful it was from the atmosphere to the food to the staff. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!!!

Went on a Friday night for a private birthday party. Very trendy place and especially liked how you enter the private room with a hidden doorway. Good atmosphere and crowd. Food was great and the bartender was fast and made great drinks. I Highly recommend the place.

I enjoyed my time here, Steven was a great bartender, very knowledgeable & friendly. I like mezcal and he offered me an off the menu mezcal drink that he created and it was delicious! He also told me that they were running a special all week on lychee martinis, so I decided to try that which was also a delicious. I really think they need to add some different tequila options, because it’s my drink of choice and there wasn’t many to choose from. Thank you Steven for your great suggestions and an amazing time last night.

We had a private event here after visiting and falling in love with the atmosphere. Our experience from our first visit was nothing short of amazing. A big shout out to our first waitress Erin who's infectious smile and personality made us love the place immediately. She was incredibly patient as we couldn't decide what to try and as we waited for our order saw her just as friendly and outgoing to all her tables. She is definetly a gem!
Moving on to our event. We booked a private event in Lucy's Parlor and Alejandra and her team were super efficient and accommodating to our every request. We had a cocktail reception that included passed appetizers like the best burger sliders,coconut shrimp, Margherita pizza, mini vegetable egg rolls, Mac and cheese bits and then chafing station with the best Greek salad and chicken franchese ever! Kudos to the chef. The bar tender was just as amazing his drinks were on point and they made sure nothing was missing.
We even ended with coffee and dessert and then carried the party upstairs were they had a live DJ who was really good. Do not regret a thing except for I wish I was having another function because I would
book them again in a heartbeat.
Go and try it you won't be disappointed they definitely have become my go to place it has the best vibe and I could not be happier with the service we received.

had to post a review since everything we had during dinner was awesome. The chicken empanadas, pizza, beet salad, roosevelt burger, wings and drinks i would recommend ! Nothing disappointed and it was a thursday so we enjoyed the bar and DJ after- we loved the speakeasy vibe - the place is beautiful - there was a group there having a birthday dinner and i would definitely come back for a another dinner or book a party - also, our waitress erin was super accommodating and tentative to us! Sorayda the super sweet host was great at checking on our dining experience which i thought was awesome as well! the friendly staff is just another reason to go back ! Definitely try this place out!

My wife recently celebrated her 40th birthday at The Roosevelt and it was an unforgettable experience! The highlight of the evening was the exceptional service provided by the Alejandra (manager) and Carolina (bartender). From the moment we arrived, Alejandra went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect, handling our large party with grace and attention to detail. Carolina crafted some of the most impressive cocktails especially the Cadillac Margherita which had our guests going back for more. The entire team made my wife's birthday celebration truly special, turning it into a night to remember. I wholeheartedly recommend The Roosevelt for any special occasion with Alejandra and team help run the event.

Some friends and I got together to get food and drinks. When I arrived I found parking close by. I walked in and sat in the bar area. We were served by a super nice server, named Marcie, and she was great. I only had a vodka martini, and it was good, along with a glass of red wine. My friends had the tuna tartare, the skirt steak, the shrimp pasta, and the salmon. They said their food was good. One of my friends did have to send back her steak because it was well done, not medium like asked. The bill wasn't bad at all, and all in all, we all had a good night, especially with the DJ playing for the night!
