We ate in the bar which can be noisy, but we had a nice little corner table which felt intimate yet was still part of the bar experience. We had the wagyu burger with fries and the brussel sprouts. Both were excellent!

Checked in early so we could have drinks at the bar (Randall was amazing) and told hostess where we were. Went to the desk after our reservation time passed and the same person asked me if I had a reservation. :/ Was sat at a nice table, not very full - it was 6:30 on Christmas. The waiter is what did it. Took a minute to get to us, not a big deal. Asked for our drink order, placed an order for 1 glass of wine. Had to ask where it was after about 15 minutes. In asking where it was we had to stop him from leaving the table to place our appetizer order. Followed by 30 minutes of nothing. No updates, no water, no second drink order, nothing. Stopped him, again, to place our entree order. After another 15 minutes, we’re at an hour now, stopped him again, asking what was up. He looked at me like what are you talking about, I said is there an issue with the kitchen or something he said, uh yea that’s it. I said cancel the food this is Reid’s Lou’s and we left with no food on Christmas night. It was Christmas so believe me, I was willing to wait and have an enjoyable slow evening if that be the case. The fact that our server, who was later working the service bar when we left, couldn’t have cared less about us. If he was working double positions because they were short staffed (they weren’t at all. The other waiters were constantly checking their tables) just say that and then we know what to expect. Something as simple as checking in on us would have been enough. I had to lead the conversation every time we flagged him down; he was clueless as to why we would even need him.

We arrive 10 min before our reservation, I value my time as I value other’s time. The hostess told us to wait 10 min and after 20 min told us to wait 10 more min. Then start to evading us and saying that the people was eating very slow, we made reservations to secure a table and have a nice Christmas Eve dinner and we ended up leaving after 50 min of being ignored. Not going back.

Made reservations at the bar, but when we got there they said that bar reservations don’t exist and it’s a first come bases. Bartender was also not too happy to serve us. Maybe it’s the holiday rush 🤷🏻‍♀️

Went for the drag brunch, the food was mediocre for the price. However, the bottomless mimosas was the way to good for the price. Fun experience overall just needs some better food options.
