    I've been wanting to eat here for a long time and it was certainly worth it! Staff was extremely friendly and the food was delicious - tried the mussels on special and I ended up drinking up the rest of the sauce with 1/2 mussel shell. It was excellent. There were many other items on the menu that I want to try in the future. Expect me to come back!

    We made a reservation here as we were heading to a show and were in the neighborhood. We loved the ambiance with the dark ceilings and windows. The menu had enough diversity to satisfy our group of 4 and there was a large beer/wine list. Service was super prompt and the food portions were generous and delicious. Would definitely return if we were in the area again.

    Staff was not attentive, food and drinks were clearly rushed. Some of the worst cocktails I have ever had, and we ordered their “signature” drinks. We asked to try different cocktails in hopes to find something better, and the replacements were actually worse that the first round

    Made a reservation for New Year’s Eve. All reservations were booked well in advance, so one would assume the restaurant would be prepared to service these people. Arrived early to our reservation, went to order after we waited a rather long time & we tried to order THREE dishes that we were told they were out of. I asked if he could tell me what they had & he proceeded to list they were out of more items, waiter was annoyed that we were frustrated & couldn’t decide what to eat when half their menu was unavailable. They were out of half their menu. I ordered an espresso martini & it tasted like it was made with rubbing alcohol, couldn’t even finish it. Had it not been a holiday we would have left & went elsewhere. Used to be my favorite restaurant, not sure I’ll be returning.

    Service was terrible. Completely understaffed and it was not busy despite being NYE, waited 30+ minutes for drinks and to order food. Ordered and then told multiple times following that they were “out of that” choose something else. 45+ minutes for food, completely forgot to bring salads. Had to ask for dirty dishes to be cleared. Took 2 1/2 hours for dinner.
