I went here for brunch. There’s free parking next to the building but not a ton. This place is a bar and there’s a food truck outside. The food is extremely good however, you have to stand in line to order then wait for the meal; then pick it up and use plastic cutlery. I don’t have a problem with this but wanted to share that it’s not a traditional brunch experience. For drinks, there good. We started w the mimosos flights and got a tower. The tower is expensive but can be shared with many friends. We didn’t finish it. The DJ is a vibe. I do recommend this place and the food truck.

Nice they have good trucks. The service was ok... Feel we waited too long for everything seeing that it was only one other couple inside. Atmosphere wear really nice.

So it is a must to try out this bar/hookah lounge. The photos on Google aren’t updated so keep scrolling for better pics because it’s beautiful inside ! Me and my partner ended up going to the Eats Beats & Jazz event and we had amazing time ! The live band was everything we needed to end our weekend with a bang, the only reason I couldn’t give this gem a 5 star review is because they don’t serve food and the food truck that was there closed at 7pm !!! When the event was from 7-10pm. I was extremely disappointed having to leave early to go get a decent meal since I purposely waited to have dinner at this event, hopefully this changes in the future.

This place is okay. Their cocktail prices are decent. They don’t serve food, instead you have to step outside and order it off a food truck which I didn’t really like… at all. This was my first time here so I was unaware they didn’t serve food. Nonetheless the food came from The Brunch Bus which was really good! I can’t complain. It was also really hot in there and not many waitresses to help. In between the barely having anywhere to sit, having to order my food off a food truck, and having to go up and close out my tab at the bar cuz our waitress was MIA, idk. Won’t be back.

Such a cute spot! It’s really one of those places you just have to go experience. They have food (we did not try) and drinks- we had mimosas and one of their specialty drinks. I’m glad we stopped and hopefully next time we can try the food.

Bre was AMAZING. Her service was phenomenal and I enjoyed her company. I would definitely be back to see her. On the other hand, we paid for valet and when we were ready to leave, the valet person did not bring our car to us, which was astonishing considering that we paid $20.

The place is beautiful and has potential. When we got there someone at the bar told us we could sit anywhere, so we did. After being there 40 min someone asked us would we be willing to move because a bigger party was coming in and we only had 2 in our party. We asked where would we be moved to, they pointed us to an area that had people seated on both sides and not even a table not big enough to eat on. We were forced to move our seats, also this place does not serve brunch the brunch comes from the food truck in the parking lot. It took 3?hours to get our food. So don’t go to eat. The manager was nice she tried to fix it but honestly it’s very disorganized. Very horrible first impression. I may return if I hear of it being better improved.

The spot was a good vibe; however, the food was AWFUL! First of all the food does not come from The Garden, instead they have partnered with a food truck which is the Southwest Pastrami Co. It took almost 2 hours to get the food and some orders were wrong? We asked for a refund we were called out of our names and assaulted by the owners/workers. If not for the unprofessionalism of the food truck which they choose to partner with I would have definitely gave 5 stars. WILL NOT BE RETURNING!

I wish I could give this establishment 0 stars, but not for the lady at the door whom was the only one in the entire building who was considerate, kind & respectful, I wish I asked her name. I sat at the bar for more than 15mins with no one ro even bring my a glass of water. The one waitress whom was at the bar when I sat down completely ignored me, but when 2 othe ladies entered they were greeted prior to sitting at the bar next to me. NowI never have anything negative to say towards the Venus I go to, but this one is absolutely the most disrespectful & lacks completely professional decorum. I will not return & I hope no one else comes to this location. Thank you Garden for starting my birthday off with such disdain.

Amazing atmosphere, good drinks!This establishment does not serve food. They do work with a food truck, however it’s not own and operated by the same people. I was under the assumption that this was a brunch location, besides the miss information, phenomenal location.
