    We were out having dinner with a group of 6 on Valentine's Day. It was very busy, and it did take a while to get our food, but our server was really kind and continued to keep us updated. The food was really good though it may be a bit pricey. Even though it was really busy and with other people talking from every direction, we were still able to hear each other talk without having to raise our voices. Would go back to try again on less busier days. Highly recommend.

    Hell’s Kitchen was a great experience for me and my girlfriend. The server was amazing she was very attentive and even asked if we had any questions as well as offered recommendations. Food was amazing honestly we were both going to come for just burgers but ended up getting the bison birria tacos and the steak. Drinks were good. Ambiance was great with the outlook of everything. Music wasn’t our choice of music but nonetheless was a great experience all around.
