    The space is wide open and very loud and bright. Felt like a warehouse. The food was sub par, more pub like but they were trying for a bit higher end feel. Unfortunately the food didn’t match. I’d suggest just go with a pub/beer joint and not feature it as more than that.

Guest feedback gives us valued insight to improve our guest experience; therefore, we appreciate your comments.

    Absolutely terrible service and food, we will never come back. All 7 of us had cold or Luke warm food. Since it took so long for us to get services then get our food no one wanted to say anything. We asked repeatedly to get water, coffee & condiments. The manager was told and the service from him or the waitress did not get any better. I wonder how long this restaurant would last if it wasn't in a nice hotel?
