    We came into the city for Happy Hour and to preview a room for an upcoming event. We sat in the glass covered rooftop, which was sunny and airy although biting cold outside. The heaters in the room and fur covered seats gave a cozy feel to the room. Our server Edwar was excellent and attentive. The drinks from the Bar were some of the best I've had. (chocolate martini and the blueberry mojito). We ordered the lil brg and truffle fries, wagyu meatballs, and the short rib quesadilla, all delicious. The piped in music was a little loud for me, after a drink it did not seem to bother me. We enjoyed our to go deserts (cheesecake and the applepie) when we got home, excellent. Closest parking was on Jane street, and was expensive Friday prior to 4pm. Meter parking is available after 4 on the weekdays and weekend, may be more reasonable. Thank you!!!!!
