    The food was amazing and the atmosphere was great! The dishes are creative and unique but still approachable and classic. It was busy but the service was still fast and it didn't feel as crowded as it was because there is plenty of space.

    Angel and Chelsea were outstanding. We are from Texas and here to watch Texas A&M basketball. We ate here Thursday and came back today. Incredible experience. Great food and drinks.

    Think you should rethink playing slow, quiet, jazz music while March madness basketball is on the screen screens. You’re a food and sports bar restaurant. The ambience was off with the jazz. Nobody cared about it and people wanted to watch the games. It was disappointing that the big screen also was not on as that was the stage for the musicians.

    The service was outstanding. The team were all very nice. The restaurant is quiet. Like you can hear the music & no one is trying to talk over it. The kitchen appears open but it is behind noise proof glass. The booths also have noise proofing glass around and you can hear everyone at the table. The food is pretty good too. For apps we had the soft pretzels with cheese fondue & the salmon dip with house made chips. Both were excellent. For entrees many had the fried chicken which was pretty good & crispy. I would recommend though to be a little more adventurous if you want more flavor. The ribs I heard were fantastic & also the chicken katsu sandwich. Not sure what others had but very much enjoyed. For dessert the monkey bread. The addition of the cinnamon apples makes it an epic dessert. It was a bit pricey but not too bad for the experience.
