   Caitlin our server was spot on, attentive, and very friendly. The atmosphere on Jazz Sunday was perfect for us. Great environment, lighting...speakeasy feel just as you would expect, and a great jazz band. Drinks were all 10/10. Great mixologist clearly behind the bar. Beef sliders, 10/10, tuna crisps 8/10, truffle fries 9/10....very was all VERY GOOD. Only thing we did not like were the "Shawarma Bombs..." they were very dry. Even the sauce and slaw doesn't help enough. Decent flavor, just very dry. So that is the only thing I would give a 5 and no reorder again. But overall, great place, great experience, and would definitely go back.

   Seating where we were was very uncomfortable, it was extremely loud throughout the place, drinks were extremely expensive, we didn’t stay to eat; the food offered was way overpriced.

   It was dead in there. Most of the tables were empty, even though it was hard to get a reservation. Apparently, the whole morning was dead. Nobody showed up and then they had last call at five so we had to go somewhere else. I felt bad for all the staff, but we saw him later at the Irish pub so it was all good. drinks were good. I didn’t have any of those special drinks of the day and we didn’t eat it either.

   The food category only got 1 Star because it was closed during time of service. I most definitely will be back on a night when there's no DJ. The Ebenezer is a beautiful speakeasy with tasty drinks.

   We love cocktails at the Ebenezer, and was excited to bring two friends who never had been there before. We made reservations a week in advance and specifically asked for seating in the area away from the bar with the fun chairs and unique atmosphere. Our reservation was at 4:30pm on a Thursday. When we arrived, we were informed that there was a private party in the room we had requested, and they needed to seat us directly next to the server area in the bar. Needless to say, we were very disappointed. We were the only patrons at the establishment from 4:30-5:15, and our table was in the least exciting area of the whole establishment. We specifically made reservations to be seated in the ‘fancy’ area away, and would have preferred that they call us and let us know that they had a private party there so that we could change our reservation to a different day. Instead , we sat awkwardly in an area next to the server station and had very expensive drinks. Our server was very attentive and friendly, but the atmosphere wasn’t what we wanted.
