    Expensive & weak drinks. No atmosphere to match the high end prices. $21 for 3 drinks! All ice & Coke.

As you enter the small room it feels like you stepped into a hidden library. We were lucky enough to be seated in the loft with a view of the downstairs. Or server was very friendly and offered many great suggestions. Try the carrots! IYKYK Cocktails were unique and delicious. Food was just as exciting on the pallet. Portions were perfectly sized. All in all, an excellent dining option. Prices are high, but for a special occasion, worth it.

Finding your way upstairs adds to the speakeasy-style charm. The reception area alone sets the vibe: playful, stylish, and full of photo-worthy moments before you even sit down. It feels like you've discovered something not everyone knows about. We went with the small plate prix fixe menu (three courses), and each dish was thoughtfully prepared, beautifully presented, and -- most importantly -- delicious. Every course left us wanting just a little more, which is exactly how a tasting-style experience should feel. Nothing felt rushed, and the pacing of the food was on point. Cocktails were also excellent, creative, well-balanced, and fitting for the ambiance. The only hiccup of the night was drink service being a bit slow. Not a dealbreaker by any means, but noticeable. Overall, a great Restaurant Week experience in a space that feels both intimate and fun. I'll absolutely be back to explore the full menu soon.

    I was debating between 3 and 4 stars because it was definitely a 3.5-star experience but that's not…read morean option. Service was great. Ambiance is lovely--great decor, comfortable seating, a gorgeous bar, and live music. Fun cocktails and a solid wine list (though the "by the glass" options are a bit limited). Ultimately, though, I think the ambiance and service are doing the heaviest lifting here--it's a bit of a "vibe dining" spot. The food is definitely good, don't get me wrong...but it's not "wow," which was a little disappointing given that you're gonna be spending $$$$. (Most entrees are $30+ and they're pretty standard fare that's not especially inventive--steaks, a few pastas, obligatory short rib dish, elevated burgers, salmon.) We liked everything just fine but I didn't taste a dish that made me go "oh man, I gotta come back for that." Instead I'm thinking "maybe I should try something else next time I'm in." I do like that your entree comes with a salad. The physical menu itself could also use some work, as its quality doesn't match the care and luxury atmosphere of the place overall. Numerous misspellings and a lack of specificity on ingredients in several of the dishes that leave the diner unclear on what, exactly, they're getting. For example, there's an entree that's described simply as "grilled chicken breast served with rosemary potato wedges and grilled zucchini." Are there spices or sauces on that chicken? Are we talking just plain salt/pep? Herbs? What? Anyway, it's fine. It's a solid date night option. We'll be back.

I had the Chicken Parm and it was amazing : classic Italian favorite. Crispy chicken breast topped with their house made marinara sauce and fresh pasta. The portions were large ( I had to bring some home) I also had two Pumpkin Martini's.... My favorite U gotta try this place to appreciate it

Very open and inviting, although it was a mild temp day and the heat was on, making it a little uncomfortable. The service on the other hand was sadly not good. Our server, Ana seemed like she was a bit intoxicated while my party was there. She was glassy eyed, face flushed, slurring a little and was not focusing or remembering things well. She initially had put in and brought me Brussels sprouts instead of truffle fries. She was speaking to us very awkwardly, and lingering and giving some people in our party weird looks and responses. I'm not sure what all was going on. We enjoyed ourselves and had a great conversation, and enjoyed the food. Unfortunately though, the service was not good at all. We had very long waits for our water at the beginning of the outing, let alone for the drinks we ordered from the bar. One of the beers that was ordered was also very flat.

For dinner, we got the Billionaire Smash (2) 4 ounce local waygu beef patties, truffle aioli, bacon onion jam, smoked cheddar, romaine, tomato, onion, and the Stuffed Gnocchi truffle pesto alfredo sauce. The entire meal with 4 alcoholic beverages was around $100.00. Great price! I wish we lived closer. Forgot to mention our server, she was very nice as well.

Was our absolute favorite & husband reported the steak was bland without it. On a positive, love they acquired a pastry chef. My to-go Coconut Cake was divine. The Ice Cream Affogato is brilliant in its simplicity! The Sautéed Mushrooms incredible! How much can you do w/ a mushroom ?? Ask the chef! Also, think they have the best Mac n Cheese (tho I do miss the fresh herb component). Still a favorite, but hoping some of the former glory is restored on my next visit!

I got the scallops and they were overcooked, and the flavors of the rest that they came with was just a miss. I got a side of Parmesan risotto so I could eat something else with it and that was also underwhelming. I ordered the "peanut butter explosion" for dessert and there was no peanut butter in it. It was literally just chocolate. The description said chocolate mousse, topped with chocolate ganache, over a candy bar crust- so I expected maybe some peanut butter in the candy bar crust since the name was "peanut butter explosion" but nope, just more chocolate.
