The service here was absolutely terrible. On the walk in there was nobody to greet us we waited a while and decided to sit down to which one of the workers yelled at us from the bar area to stay there and wait for her. The waitresses paid no attention to us. We were shown a table we sat down but then she comes back and tells us we have to move to the other side because we can’t be serviced on that side which is where she sat us down. Once she gave us the initial waters to drink we didn’t see her again till we go the food and then again no service till we were about to eat. If it wasn’t for the fact that gratuity was already included I wouldn’t have tipped. Food was mid as well. Will never go back here. And I mean that.

Worst dining experience ever! We waited 3 hours for our food to come out and our server never came to check on our table after placing our order. Luckily I called the manager over and she was able to bring out our food right away. She was sweet and very apologetic for the long wait but I can’t help but think if I didn’t call her over we would’ve waited even longer for our food smh. We then waited again for the bill to come, it was such a awful experience here and the food surely wasn’t worth it.I do not recommend.

I love the food and the place but my specific waiter service was poor. She forgot that she was assigned to our table which I gave her grace but she did not make up for it. She was very slow when giving us water and utensils. She didn’t even ask if we were okay. She forgot my friends order. We had to keep calling for her cause she kept disappearing especially when it came to clearing our tables and giving us the check. But honestly not too much on her cause stuff could be happening but at the same time I’ve seen a very busy restaurant with great service. At least my waiter did give me my free birthday dessert with the sparklers which was nice and she took my group pictures. The service may be a little weak for me cause I was seeing other tables have good service but overall I had a good time with my friends. The place gives me club restaurant vibes. It’s very nice. The food was a very good portion with great price and taste.

The establishment overall was very nice and the service was great too. The oxtail wasn't cooked long enough so it was really tough to eat but overall the food was good. The location is good for a sunday because parking was not an issue at all which was a relief. I had a wonderful birthday and I will definitely be back.

The live dj was awesome and the food was great (very spicy though!). I enjoyed my time there but it took 2 hours to get our food, the restaurant was overbooked and the music was wayy too loud to talk to anybody. The waitress tried her best to keep us content and was very sweet
