    Food and server were good but it was way too noisy. Probably would not return due to the noise

    The waiter kept forgetting us. It took forever to get water and drinks. It wasn’t until what appeared to be a manager that checked on us that we got a little bit better service…. I’m okay with a wait time as it was a Saturday, but it’s nice to communicate that you’ll be with us or something of that nature. She also turned her back as my guest was still deciding on her drink to help another table behind us and then walked away. Food was okay but I wouldn’t go back.

    Customer service was awful. No one checked on our table , orders were wrong. Some orders had missing items with them. Our food came out exactly at 9pm which is 30 mins from closing! I got there at 7:44pm, my reservation was for 7:45pm. No one seated us until 8pm and it wasn’t crowded! This is just an awful place to have dinner. Drinks watery and the bar tender was drunk!

    Great food and great server but she was the only server working. She was attentive even though she had 4 other tables and trying to bus tables at the same time. We really enjoyed the oysters, they were briny and fresh! I would not recommend the crab soup, I took a few bites and couldn’t take any more. The lamb chops were outstanding and so were the Parmesan fries! Would def go back!

    For my friends birthday, went there for the $47 brunch where you can order as much as you want to share. They just shouldn’t offer it because they control it with being extreme slow in bringing out the food so really you only are there long enough to get two orders in. They blamed it on the crowd but as time went on there were less and less people. It took an hour to get our full order from when we first got there. We also waited almost an hour for our second order to come out. Also drinks took about 20 min each time we ordered. Overall wouldn’t go back. The chicken was good though.

    I attended brunch today to celebrate my birthday. Our waitress, Alexis, was on point. She checked on us constantly and made sure our cups never stayed empty. Enjoyed myself completely.

    What a great experience! Couldn't get a seat in the main dining room because they had a private event, but were still seated immediately in the bar area. Our server MJ was so sweet and even though they were packed still had timely service. Loved the lemon aioli on the calamari. The salmon poke bowl was also fantastic very filling and flavorful.

    The food and drinks were just ok. I was also celebrating a birthday, that they did not acknowledge even though it was in the reservation and I mentioned it upon arrival. Also, one of the empanadas we ordered had all fat in it, no meat. Instead of the manager giving us another complete empanada dish, she only gave us one empanada in a take home container. Not classy at all! Not a great experience. Very disappointing experience! Probably won’t return to this location.
