This place is a little gem. The food is so fresh and thoughtful. The cocktails and house lemonade were amazing. The service was impeccable. My son said the kids chicken tenders were the best he's ever had. He doesn't really get excited about food and prefers to eat at home but everything had that homemade taste so it was easy for him to love. I would love to visit for dinner the next time we are passing through.

We came in a couple of hours before closing and were seated immediately, which was appreciated. However, the menus we were handed were printed on damp copy paper—not a great first impression. Within a minute or two of sitting down, our server came over and asked if we were ready to order, without first offering any drinks.

After placing our order, we waited around 20–25 minutes, and both appetizers and entrées were brought out at the same time. While we were waiting, staff began cleaning up and preparing to close—over an hour and a half before the actual closing time. Some employees were even eating in the front of the house during this period, which felt unprofessional. Later, the same host who seated us was seen drinking (not soda) in the front of the restaurant.

The food itself was okay—nothing particularly memorable—and felt overpriced, especially considering there were no drinks offered and little meat in the dishes. Throughout the meal, the atmosphere gave off the strong impression that the staff was ready to leave for the day, which made the overall experience uncomfortable.

Unfortunately, I wouldn’t return or recommend this place based on our visit.

We were able to reserve a table upstairs and had a great view by the window. The hostess was super friendly and we were seated quickly. I tried the Restaurant Week Prefixe menu. The Summer Harvest Salad was DELICIOUS! I chose the Peach 🍑 Hard Tea which was also delicious. I ended up buying a case to take home from the shop on first floor. My husband had a cheese steak he really enjoyed and I had the Hawaiian Fried Rice.

This place is fantastic, relaxed and unpretentious. Went to dinner with friends before a show at Wind Creek, we arrived early so we had a chance to grab a cocktail at the bar, wonderful bar tenders, friendly and knowledgeable, willing to talk about all the spirits they make and the cocktails they use them in, the 2 we had (a classic Manhattan and the Smokin' Citrus) were delicious. Moved to a table to eat and the food was very good, and the service was fast and friendly. If you are looking for a place in the area this should be at the top of your list.

We love Social Still!! Can always count on high quality food and amazing cocktails. Service is always top notch and it’s great to have the option of sitting outside in the summer.

After visiting Museum of Industry we crossed to the next street and had a great lunch here. My partner tried the spirit flight of and enjoyed it. We split the Greek flatbread which was delicious and enough for us to share. Interesting choice of cocktails and our barmaid was fun and knew a lot about the history of the area. The location was a former bank and the safe is in view. Very cool place. You can park for free on 2nd street across from the museum.

The drinks were ordered were just fantastic - it’s obvious that time and effort are put into getting them just right. However, the music was so loud, like club-level loud, for a 6pm Thursday dinner that we couldn’t talk to each other at the same table. And the service was spotty. We were seated right away and our drink order was taken, but then our waitress disappeared. Twenty minutes later she reappeared as we were finishing our drinks - we decided to just close our tab and go somewhere else for our meal.

Hands down the best drinks we've had out. Jalapeno heist is my favorite. First time there for brunch with friends. Great brunch menu. Pad Thai with scrambled eggs was fantastic. The service is always great. Thanks for taking care of us today, Allie!
