    Everything was close to perfect. The host staff was able to accommodate a change from a birthday to an anniversary. Service was amazing and the food was perfect. This was visit 2 for me. And visit 1 for my significant other. The waiter never asked if we had eaten there before and never gave us the in-depth food thing talking about all the meats being prime grade and such or going through the ingredients for the dishes. Noise level was not bad. If you want a booth I would recommend over the tables. Overall though I would go back again.

    Hell’s Kitchen was a great experience for me and my girlfriend. The server was amazing she was very attentive and even asked if we had any questions as well as offered recommendations. Food was amazing honestly we were both going to come for just burgers but ended up getting the bison birria tacos and the steak. Drinks were good. Ambiance was great with the outlook of everything. Music wasn’t our choice of music but nonetheless was a great experience all around.
