    In anticipation of this brunch i did not eat. I had 12:30p reservations. Right before we walked in a group of 20+ walked in ahead of us and was seated. We were seated not too far from that large group and unfortunately had to share the same waiter. The waiter took our order within minutes of us sitting down. We ordered shareables, appetizers and drinks to start off with. About 30 mins later i asked the waiter that only poured water for us for some bread. He said he would let pur waiter know. About 10 more minutes later i asked a different waiter for some bread. We get our drinks with alcohol in them and by now the alcohol is making me really need to eat. Again 2 more minutes later i am waving down a lady in a polka dot dress who looked like she was serving and also helping people. I explained to her i am a diabetic and i had 12:30p reservations and by this time it was 1:20p and i am begging for bread again and for an update on our meals. Well 5 more minutes later she brings me out some toasted bread and cold butter. After i eat enough to ensure im not falling out as i leave they bring us our appetizers. The mac n cheese was served on a COLD cast iron pan so cold you could hold the bottom of the pan with an open hand. Another dish was also very cold. The ribs were semi warm and i just submitted to eating them because i needed something on my stomach by now because i had taken medication around 12p and its almost 2pm. We asked for the check and gave up on the entree. They even had the nerve to add the service fee / tip when we had not even seen the waiter for the last 45 minutes. We asked they take that off and paid for our drinks and semi warm 3 ribs and left. Music was great but just do not depend on service if they are crowded. They will forget you exist.

    Even if you have a reservation you will wait 30 minutes to 1 hour for a table after your reservation time. Once you are seated everything flows well.

    My sister and I just wanted to get out after a stressful couple of months..we chose Row House because it was local. It did not disappoint. We were seated immediately as we arrived on time for our reservation. The Creole short ribs melted in my mouth…the Hennessy Punch was delicious and definitely not watered down. The DJ was great and the energy was on high. I had an amazing time.

    I made reservations and when I arrived I had to wait over 2 hrs for a tiny table meant for 1 in the middle of the dance floor where people constantly bumped into me and my friends food. I literally had to eat while balancing one of my plates in my hand all while watching that no one buys into me. I wasn’t able to have a conversation with my friend music was sooo loud. The place is great to hang out with friends for drinks and great music but not to eat.

    Row House is great for vibes and a party atmosphere on Saturdays, food is good, just don't expect top tier service. You will wait for your table even if you have reservations.

    The waiter was amazing very attentive and kept checking on us. The downfall. The hostess came to my table to tell us our 90 mins was over for brunch. This was irritating especially after the waitress asked us if we wanted another round. The waitress brought our round to the table and the hostess came back and asked us if we wanted to go cups because there was a party waiting. Very tacky and uncalled for on the hostesses end and even the server looked embarrassed when HE came back over to repeat himself. However again she was amazing and the rising was uncalled for especially for paying customers on full price drinks!! Managers/owners do better with training because it wasn’t it all around for that part
