First off when I walked to the bar , the bartenders looked at me and didn’t even speak right away . 2nd if it wasn’t for the waitress Shona (who doesn’t even work there anymore )we would have left. . Food platter $50 some items salty , some had no taste, mussels over cooked ,drinks were horrible . We asked to change it . The female bartender asked us from behind the bar what we were saying ? So rude . They never sent our drinks back , even when Shona went to ask. It was suppose to be a party of 10 , we left before the others could even arrive .

If I could give zero stars I would. DO NOT order with Uber. I waited an hour for the driver to call me on their phone hand over the phone to an employee and tell me they didn’t have the one item I ordered. I was also told that I had to cancel it on my end so I wouldn’t get charged. So I did. Then the Uber app said I was going to be charged upwards to $20 for waiting an hour and no food. I tried to speak with an agent with Uber but they said that because I cancelled the order after the restaurant accepted it it means they started working on it. That obviously didn’t apply since they didn’t have what I ordered. I even tried call the restaurant and tell them to try to reach out to Uber but they don’t have an available number. Just don’t bother. I can’t speak for the food since I never got it.

Can't rate the food. We didn't eat. We did however have great drinks and hookah. I only gave it a 4 star rating because after telling us to sit anywhere, getting drinks and a hookah set up, we were told we had to move because the table was reserved. And no one assisted us in moving from out table to another. Tsk tsk tsk

Food was good, vibes and dj were lit!
Best part of the night was the service received from Kimmy. From the moment we arrived Kimmy was extremely friendly and answered a few questions we had— 10/10 service!!!
For a local spot, I will be back.
