Great drinks - disappointing food - disappointing music. Was Thanksgiving so very busy which was to be expected but had such high hopes going in and it missed the mark on every aspect.

It’s great that restaurants like this offer opportunities for couples to get out on holidays! The food was nicely portioned and well thought through I loved the variety in options. My short rib was excellent! The live jazz was top notch highlight of the evening. I love the Beehive it’s great year round. If I had one critique the drinks were awful. Take the winter Paloma off the menu entirely.

Appetizers, dinners, and drinks were great! Dessert was horrible. Our family celebrates Thanksgiving every year at the Beehive and we can't figure out why the desserts are so bad!!

We went for jazz brunch before the theater and it was lively and festive. We all ended up getting the Eggs Benedict and a variety of coffee. The waitress was great and accommodated any manner of hot/iced, regular/decaf, with different creamers. She was wonderful. The food came out quick and hot and they also accommodated our desire to get next door to the theater efficiently. The bartenders, too, were lovely while we waited for our table. All in all a quick but fulfilling experience.

Waitstaff was trying to get us out the door from the moment we sat down. it went from uncomfortable to outright infuriating. it's not like we were cheap either - two apps, two mains, and three drinks for two of us. i know it's saturday night but the food is expensive enough, let us enjoy it.
