   We didn't eat off of the main menu, just the happy hour menu. The happy hour menu was disappointing. Oyster preparation was a little strange, smashburger was overcooked, and they were out of a couple items on the menu. Service was fantastic but they need to up the food game to compete with Ruth Chris's

   The history of the restaurant was printed in the menu book and was an interesting introduction to our visit. The food and cocktails were imaginative, exceptionally well-prepared and very tasty. Timing of delivery was spot on. The waitstaff were attentive and friendly. A truly enjoyable dining experience. Definitely will visit again!

   We waited at the bar for our table about 30 minutes, hostess couldn't find us, our food order was lost, steak was raw. Had 7:30 reservation Entrée did not arrive until 9:30.

   Nice atmosphere with good service. Took quite a long time to get drinks. Missed a side order of mushrooms. A little pricey. Will likely return

   We celebrated a friend's birthday (party of 8) down in the Speakeasy. It was fantastic! Craig and Aiden made our experience perfect - they tended to our group quickly and made sure we were comfortable throughout the evening. The food, drinks, ambiance, and service were fabulous. It is an expensive evening....but worth every penny. The Lobster bisque is AMAZING.

   Food was very good. we were near entrance and the door was left open at times and cold wind came in. Service was quick and efficient. Weird bar service asked for a Makers and ginger ale and got a shot of bourbon and a separate glass of ginger ale with no ice. My wife asked for Makers with water on the side. Again, no ice. When they delivered the drinks we asked for ice and they brought back three small cubes each.
