     if you are not given a booth and your dining for two, you will be crammed in these high top small tables with guests to your left and right with about 1 feet or 2 feet of space in between each other it felt uncomfortable so I decided to leave soon after being sat down and not order anything spread them out more in my opinion

    Great meal nearly ruined by the volume of the music. I like music. I like loud music. But I hate screaming at my table mates all dinner. The food and service were sensational. The ambiance left something to be desired.

    Had a reservation but the host didn’t check and seated us right away as there were a few available tables. The tables, menu, and cups were dirty and sticky. We only ordered drinks. The bartenders were backed up. Overall it was overpriced for that experience. Our waiter was outstanding and attentive.

    I made reservations and the night prior at 10pm they told me they had a private event when this dinner was really important and we had to cancel since it was so last minute. They could’ve just not let me make reservations and I could’ve had time to figure something else out.
