This place has gorgeous high ceilings which deliver terrible acoustics for the amount of people they have seated to eat. Our table of 7 was yelling to hear each other the whole evening. We arrived on time and were told to wait at the bar because our table wasn’t ready. But the bar does not have standing room space and everyone there is uncomfortably crammed in and trying to let people pass to the bathroom. 20 minutes to wait for our reservation. Tables are cramped and there’s no room to navigate the dining room and guests and servers kept bumping into us at our seats. I don’t know if we’ll come back but if we do it will be a quieter day of the week as Friday night was not fun for us.

It's just insane that cheapness is alive and well at this restaurant as is disorganization. You should be better !!!

My friend was seating in the aisle and his chair was bumped three times by servers, no apology was given. Otherwise great food, and the restaurant is very clean and bright.
