    Food wasn’t wonderful. Out of many items. Would go here for drinks only. Right beside Andrew’s Hall.

    Came for my birthday dinner (party of 10). Connor was a fantastic waiter, & the bartender crafted some delicious drinks. Food took 1.5 hours (except mine & my date's; our shrimp po boys came out as we were getting ready to leave & we had to just take them to-go). Manager said that was because the food wasn't up to par so he sent it back (but he didn't tell us that until AFTER we asked what the holdup was, an hour into the reservation). After they were reminded it was my birthday, I asked for a cake. They told me to hold on, then came back with a popsicle in an ice bucket with a candle on the side. They also had 2 Chainz Birthday Song blasting from a portable speaker (I actually hate that song, but maybe it's assumed that the black dinner groups want that kind of noise & attention). A few minutes after the spectacle, they brought out lemon bars &, magically, a package of brownies. An effort was made, but they could've just told me they didn't have cake instead of trying to placate me with a popsicle & attempted twerkfest while they went out to buy brownies. If the manager sees this: in the future, don't try to assume what your dinner party wants without consulting them. Just tell the truth & keep them updated on their orders. My party said their food was not that great. I didn't even eat mine later, I was no longer interested in trying it. We were comped for the desserts & a round of drinks.

    Dinner tasted great, but service and getting our food was really slow. Came for all the gluten free options and they didn't disappointed! Everything was tasty!

    Great vibe & atmosphere. However the food pictures on Yelp are very misleading as there is non of that fancy food on their menu. We ended up not eating here, as the menu was more bar food than dining food. Great servers & friendly, but more a bar than restaurant.

    After a very tough week, we had reservations at the elephant room. It was a wonderful dining experience great food great cocktails. The staff was wonderful and the chef came out to see how the food was. I would definitely go there again.

    We arrived early. Sat at the bar for 20 minutes. We were never offered water, a drink etc. we’re seated. After another 10+ minutes we were not acknowledged. Looked online for another restaurant and left for a fabulous evening at another restaurant. Will not be returning.
