    We made reservations weeks in advance and we were placed at a booth that only had one accessible side due to it being pushed against a table (that other guests were sitting at, by the way). They saw nothing wrong with us having to sit side-by-side and not being able to use the other side of the booth. It was not busy by any means and they had plenty notice that we would be there, so there was no reason for that seating arrangement. The layout is very confusing. The service was subpar. Couldn’t make a simple espresso martini correctly. The draft machine was broken. I wish that we would have taken our money elsewhere, because this place certainly didn’t deserve it.

    I thought the food, while pretty good, was way too expensive.
