Michelle was great to work with and responded to (all of my many) texts and emails. Our wedding was over 2 weeks ago and our guests are still talking about how cool the spacewas! The view of the water is gorgeous, the string lights make it extra special, the ramp going up was fun for us to getintroduced out of, the train car bar, just so many unique parts to this venue that made us fall in love with it. We've alsodined in the boiler room several times and the food and service is always excellent! If we didn't live an hour away, we'd likebe in a few times per month. Thank you to all for ensuring our wedding day was perfect!

Their friends at the bar are more important and will get a LOT more attention than you, as it should be because you are just there to buy some supper and spend money. Be prepared to get up and ask for morewater/drinks when you need them, and also be prepared to wait about 30 min for just a menu before the server can pull herselfaway from from her pals at the bar. 2) We got two sets of silverware for the five of us. No joke, I got up and asked for more server was over at the bar hanging out with friends) and was told that was all they had at the time. I kid you not, we orderedfood that we didn't need silverware for. when the food came, I told the server that we still needed silverware and she replied OK and went back over to the bar. After eating, while we were waiting for the bill, somebody brought out the much neededsilverware to our table. That was a nice touch. 3) After all of this this the food was just average. not great, but what canyou expect when you get this kind of great service. 4) I spent 119.00 on food and drinks in there last night. I will neverspend another dime in that place until they get new management/staff. If you go there to eat a meal you will be about fifth onthe list of importance. they should just go full bar and drop the dining part.
