Disappointing! I had read so many great things and was excited to try this place. When my friend arrived a few mins late for our reservation (she gave a courtesy call and the rest of us were searching for parking!), one of two RUDE hostesses asked her to take a picture of the menu, so she could send to those who had not arrived yet - because we were "on the clock" now. The entire meal was rushed, the food was forgettable and described by most at the table as "ok", my cocktail was nice, and the servers did not pay any attention to us. I was offered a total of one drink in our entire allotted 90-100ish minutes. By 45 mins into the meal, our husbands were not offered anything else to drink (they got their 2nd and last drink just before dinner arrived). And to make matters the most awkward, the hostesses were back! ...Hovering... talking to the bartender... and pointing at us!! Very strange and uncomfortable. This had potential to be a lovely go-to place - I wanted to like it... but this is a saturated market with a burgeoning restaurant scene, and tons of amazing places to go, save your money for higher quality everything. We won't be back :(
