Better late than never with this backdated review--life has just been lifing!…read moreI finally made it to Artemis on July 22nd after fiending to go since January. There's actually a hilarious story behind why I went. I was originally supposed to have a date that night, but let's be real: you'd think a 61-year-old man would know better than to take a 47-year-old woman to Dave & Buster's. I canceled the night before, dolled myself up the day of, and decided to take myself out instead. Best decision ever. The joint is dimly lit. But your eyes wind up adjusting. It's got a great vibe. Definitely excellent for a date night. The bartenders here are absolute rockstars. I started with a Painkiller. Even though it's no longer on the menu, they whipped it up for me anyway--and hey, it definitely relieved my pain, lol! Next, I tried a Corpse Reviver just because it had absinthe in it. It was different, but I really enjoyed it. Naturally, I had to finish with my signature drink, a Cosmopolitan, because I am the Black Carrie Bradshaw of Long Island. And it did not disappoint. The eats: I got the charcuterie board--fancy and bougie, just like me--and wrapped up the night with the brownie à la mode for dessert. Drowning my troubles in sweets is a must when the Long Island dating pool is an absolute wasteland, lmao. Did I want to spend my night around teenagers, kids, and skee-ball? HELL NO! I wanted a grown-and-sexy speakeasy vibe, and Artemis delivered. 5/5 stars--would 100% recommend!

Artemis is a beautifully decorated restaurant with a great ambiance, and our waitress was friendly,…read moreattentive, and did a good job taking care of us. Unfortunately, the overall experience was mixed. The two-hour table limit felt unnecessarily restrictive, especially for a group of eight. We were split into two separate areas of the restaurant, and there didn't seem to be much willingness to accommodate us so we could sit together. The person checking us in was not particularly welcoming, which didn't make the best first impression. What really left a bad taste, though, was the manager's explanation that the two-hour limit is necessary because "turning tables" is how the restaurant makes money. While I understand the business reasoning, hearing it explained that way made the experience feel more transactional than hospitable. The biggest issue is that the time limit actually worked against the restaurant. Rather than staying for another drink and continuing our evening there, we ended up going somewhere else. For me, that defeats the purpose of creating a nice atmosphere if guests are being encouraged to leave before they're ready. Beautiful restaurant, good service from our waitress, but the rigid seating policy and the way it was handled would make me think twice about returning.

We had our 2-month old baby, and there was enough room to park his slim stroller next to the table. We love the Dr Pepper BBQ sauce in the Short Rib Grilled Cheese so much, that we even order the wings tossed in it, despite being die hard buffalo fans. The burgers are fantastic and large, and I have a hard time choosing between their normal menu, and the drool-worthy rotating weekly specials. (I can't stop thinking about the lime shrimp special we had earlier this week -- fresh, and delicious!)

More of a macro selection for craft beer but I found a local IPA to enjoy with my meal. The GM or owner, Chuck came over to check on us too. Nice guy! I'll be back sooner than later.

The area in front of the stage is somewhat big for your viewing pleasure and the side stage is small. It depends on what type of music you're there for. Last night it was a heavy metal show. One guy was moshing intensely...ended up punching my friend in the face and then kicked a girl in the stomach. There was enough space in front of the stage for this not to happen. We later found out this person was part of a gang. Drinks were okay. For the first round my boyfriend got a vodka soda and I ordered a whiskey ginger. I was given a whisky sour. Didn't realize it until we left the bar that I was given the wrong drink. Bathrooms were clean. Woman's room had necessities such as lotion, some hair ties and tampons. My boyfriend said men's room wasn't as nice. I would return here...but they need better crowd control.

I'm not generally a beer drinker, but I decided on the blueberry beer and it was fabulous, so I had another. My husband was drinking the Porter, and when I took a sip of his, I was torn on whether my next beer would be another blueberry or the Porter because they were both fantastic. The atmosphere was terrific. We sat with a bunch of friends around a huge table, where we could listen to the live music and also holdconversations. The other patrons were all very friendly and the vibe felt like we were all at a mutual friend's house. I highly recommend this spot. There was a food truck outside for anyone wanting something to eat, and the staff was very welcoming and friendly. We'll be back!
