“I came here on a Monday evening at 6:30 PM with four of my colleagues. We sat outside, which was fine with the weather and it was also the only table they had available for four people with a week notice. I tried to change my reservation and add more people, but when I called on a Monday, they unfortunately are not open. However they did return my call the next day which is super rare. The inside looks really nice. My colleague was at the bar having cocktails and loved their cocktail list. I got the social butterfly and it was delicious and beautiful, with gin, vermouth maraschino liqueur and Thai basil, but you really don’t taste the basil which is good thing for me. We ordered the bread with butter and the smorgasbord of cheese and meat. It was so good. I can’t explain it but it was not your ordinary meats and cheeses with prosciutto and brie and manchego. I split the duck and the Bucatini with my colleague, both were very delicious and then we all shared the profiteroles and pear spice cake, which was amazing as well. I will say the menu changes often because now that I’m looking at the website a week later my dishes are no longer there. But I don’t deny that anything that is on their menu is very good. My colleague got the steak and my other colleague got a different pasta and everyone loved their dishes.“

“My dinner here was the most memorable and unique dining experience I’ve had in a very long time and it was the highlight of my weekend visit. If I lived in the RVA area I would be a regular here! Love the campy decor, drinks, and eccentric clientele. Reminds me of a few long gone places we used to frequent along Brooklyn’s outer edge.“

“The food is delicious, however if I were rating it, I would give it 3.75 out of 5 stars. I go into eating here knowing that it’s expensive and being OK with that, but I do have a problem with there being an automatic 20% gratuity put onto my bill and an additional 3% for credit cards. So that $25 vegan Pho is really a $31 dish. I’m going to tip 20% anyway, but let that be up to me.“
