    We had good drinks, good appetizers and 1/2 good entres. When we complained about our ribeye beibg overcooked they politely offered a remake. However the remake was worse. When we asked for the entree to be removed from the bill as it was not satisfactory we were told we were served a perfectly cooked steak we disnt know what good food was and summarily belittled by suggesting our food was sub standard. It really did suck. Horrible management by server and manager. We will not return.

    Great place for a quick bite. The staff is wonderful and the food is what you would expect from a gastropub. The only thing I find odd is that the hostesses are forced to have their backs to you when they go to review seating arrangements or look for reservations. The way the hostess station is laid out is very awkward and should be turned around so that they can face the people coming in. Other than that I would definitely come back.

    We were sat right away but it took 24 minutes to get our drinks? Might have been a staffing issue

    We ordered a dirty martini that came just shy of the halfway mark on the glass, flatbread was inedible but the other dishes were okay. Not a good visit.
