    It is always fun to come here. Great people, great food, always some type of live music which is often surprising. And the vodka and cocktails are outstanding …

    Brought my choir pals for late night cocktails and had a fabulous time! I had a reservation but they didn't have it on their list. - but they shuffled things around and squeezed us in anyway. Been stopping here whenever we're in town for at least 15 years and it never disappoints. Great food, drinks, and entertainment.

    I had my birthday in the back room on a Friday night. Absolutely the best place to have a birthday party in the city. Max, the singer, is so talented. He made everyone’s night. Our waiter was so patient and helped us split up the bill for a huge group. The photographer was so sweet and made the night feel really special. Can’t recommend this place enough.

    Exceptional service! The caviar was divine & the gluten free substitute of sliced egg was brilliant! So delicious ❤️ The recommended Vodka’s were smooth & of excellent quality. A thoroughly delightful evening. We have 3 photos your staff so kindly took & framed for us to remember the night.
