   We got a last minute reservation for Valentine’s Day and didn’t know much about this place prior to our arrival! I have celiac and they had a great gluten free menu with lots of choices, also lots of house made pastas for the gluten eaters. The mussels app was to die for as was the swordfish! Great experience!! Definitely recommend

   We've not eaten here in many years but, staying in the hotel, it was such an easy and enticing option. It's very hip for oldsters like we've become but we felt comfortable and well-treated. Brittany was fantastic. The steak, swordfish and gnochetti were fabulous. The spaghetti was 'OK', not bad at all, just not up to the standard set by the other entrees. Appetizers, salads and drinks were par excellence. Finally, the tiramisu was unique and delicious. Thanks for a wonderful, memorable evening!

   Ambiance was on point. Good looking menu. Food was cold.

   Perfect place for my fiancé’s anniversary! The food was fantastic, our server was as so great, and I will dream of the pork chop!

   I felt bad for our waitress. I think she was legitimately trying her best to provide good service, but they ended up comping us a free drink AND dessert because the service was so slow from the bar and the kitchen. I had the pork chop, my wife had the risotto, and we shared the Brussels sprouts. Both entrees tasted good, but the Brussels sprouts were next level tasty. There was a “slight” concern from my wife that my pork chop was the “rarest, pinkest piece of pork” she’s ever seen someone actually eat. In fairness, I still ate it. But if I end up with a brain worm or something, I’ll probably regret not listening to my wife and sending it back. It’s just that we had already waited a long time for our meals to come, I would’ve eaten anything that was put in front of me. Which I did. Overall, for the price and reputation this place carries- I was underwhelmed. Good food, not great (I reserve the right to edit that statement based on future brain worm status). Bad service, despite our waitresses best efforts. And parking downtown was a mother. I won’t be going back there.

   Great food, drinks and service. Very loud so don’t expect to hold quiet conversations.

   This used to be a fun, change of pace place. A guaranteed culinary adventure combined with a hip vibe and provocative artwork. The artwork does not disappoint but the menu is meh. Our usual favorite the charred octopus was oily and not charred. My sword fish was divine but the gnocchi was lackluster at best. Our server was pleasant but ill formed and our table was never fully cleared. One entree was served while we were still eating the charcuterie and the other entrees came out one at a time before the app plates were cleared. The noise level was so loud we stopped trying to converse entirely. I may return for a cocktail or to sit on the patio for the charcuterie or as a meet up place before going somewhere else to dine. My general impression was a lack of leadership in management. Little training and appreciation for standards that other nearby restaurants are providing at a similar price point. Being avant- guard does not replace attention quality.
