Grill, Pasta, Beverages

Reviews summary

An energetic, music-forward spot with live performances, a roomy patio and a mature, dance-friendly crowd. Standout dishes and strong cocktails (when done right) pair well with brunch and events, while warm hospitality from some staff keeps regulars returning. Expect door/cover fees and generally higher prices; service and drink consistency can be uneven, with slow checks or watered-down cocktails reported. Despite occasional staffing lapses, vibrant atmosphere and memorable nights make it a popular entertainment destination.

The atmosphere and music set a wonderful mood for spending time with friends. Unfortunately, the service was quite slow, and while the drinks were pricey, they lacked strength. View all feedback.

It's a little pricey. We had already had something to eat and our beverages before we arrived. We only was there for the entertainment. When we asked to pay our check, it took the waitress 30 minutes to bring back our card and then she seem to havean attitude. We did at least order a drink to help her with a tip. My drink had no alcohol in it at all. It was more likekool-aid if you ask me. I won't be back for a long time with attitudes like that because you can't make me buy something if Idon't want or need to.

I had a lovely experience during my first visit to Ish. The atmosphere was more aligned with a mature crowd. I stopped by on a Friday evening without a reservation and noticed a $15 cover charge at the entrance. That night, there was a live performance; while I can't remember the singer's name, I snapped a photo of her, and she was amazing—the band was fantastic as well. I ordered a Patrón margarita at the bar, and the bartender made it quite strong; I definitely felt the effects later, haha. The patio area was also nice for relaxing or having a smoke if needed. Overall, my experience was wonderful, and I will definitely be back. Thank you!

I’m so glad I had the chance to visit this restaurant! My experience was fantastic. The food was outstanding, and the drinks were incredible! Our waitress was charming and really assisted me in choosing a drink. And those honey bourbon wings? Wow! I can't get enough of them! I will definitely be coming back for another visit!

I had the pleasure of dining here during a book signing event, and I must say, the food and service were outstanding. While the exterior of the restaurant isn't overly appealing, the interior is beautifully decorated. I had brunch, and everything I tried, including the red velvet waffles and shrimp and grits, was delightful. Although I can't recall my waitress's name, she was extremely attentive and polite. I'm definitely looking forward to returning!

For the reopening, it wasn't quite what I anticipated. The food is typically good, and the drinks are usually fantastic! However, on Friday night, I had a watered-down strawberry margarita and a bland Cajun pasta. There were only two servers who were overwhelmed and had to constantly run back and forth.

$20 cover and absolutely atrocious at customer service. Good potential but bartender slow and waiters are horrible. Saw a waiter taking drinks at the other bar so I ask could I order she says No . I say I 'm going to tip you and I 've seen taking other order here she replies okay I 'll be right back . FR
