Let's face facts: the atmosphere is atrocious. It's obnoxiously loud and dark. Quieter after 8pm, but also darker. The decor is try-hard edgy; closer to Cosmopolitan-Hotel-reject than French cafe. It's just plain uncomfortable. To their credit, the small wine and bubbly list is very well curated and the food is passable, but it's not enough to lure me back given their pretentiousness in price and location. Seriously, it was so loud. They had club-volume-level music on all night and club-length bathroom lines! No thanks.
