Waitress was really nice, food was great, but the bartender had the nerve. There were only 2 bar guests and 3 tables sat on a Wednesday night and he does everything besides make the poor waitress’s drinks for her table. We finished our appetizer before receiving our first round of drinks. Unacceptable to be honest. Won’t be returning if hes on the clock.

Good food. Dim lighting it's more of a romantic atmosphere. Lucky for my coworker I took him there. LOL.

our absolute favorite restaurant almost anywhere. Best described as new American comfort Food with the twist. The chef is phenomenal. The service is also wonderful and attentive. A generous poor of wine. Prices are reasonable. Highly recommend.

Ambiance is outstanding for the location. Food was excellent as well. I had the Bronzino and it was cooked perfectly. Nice presentation as well. A few missteps. Most meals were served but my wife's had a 10 minute delay for some unknown reason. Always awkward when everyone gets their meal but someone doesn't. Always thought it best to hold meals and bring them all out together. Old fashioned was tasty as well. Nice quick walk to The Rock afterwards. Will certainly be back.

Food was superb, everything tasted fresh, with a perfect combination of different spices. Drinks were great. I had an Old Fashioned which is not something I usually drink, yet it was just right! Our server was so attentive it was fun to talk to her. Great place!
