It wasn't a bad meal it just wasn't particularly good and it's pricey. I think some improvement on their menu choices and better execution in the kitchen will make it an enjoyable restaurant in time. We were seated in a little room and the acoustics were terrible. It was so noisy that we could barely hear each other talk. I will try to go there for lunch and check it out. I'm glad that they've opened but I'll wait to go back for dinner until I see some improvement.

People were literally yelling. Love the decor. Food was not as good as the prices let on. Steak was cold. Chicken was tender juicy. It has potential we hope they work out the kinks.

One dessert option unavailable. Beef overcooked despite asking for medium rare (cuz it wasn’t available). No whipped cream or ice cream to go with the pie. No substitution allowed for missing items. Server unapologetic no consideration of the menu fee.

I made a reservation, and there were plenty of seats available for a late Sunday lunch, although no specific table was set aside for us. I was a bit confused about the menu for that time of day, as their online presence and Facebook page don't clearly indicate which food options are available at different times. It wasn't the brunch menu. Since I don’t usually eat meat, I found the lunch menu—if that's what it was—to be quite limited. The choices were either a salad or spicy shrimp, and unfortunately, they were out of meatless patty options, which was disappointing. The food was tasty, and I felt it was reasonably priced. However, our waitress seemed completely disinterested and lacking in enthusiasm. Given the small menu and limited options, I don't think I'll be coming back.

And the desserts are truly next level but the lack of customer service was not up to par at all. We would go back again but only for drinks and dessert. But never again for a special occasion.
