We liked the cocktails, we ordered the ribeye steak and it was perfect and we split everything and they split the plates and gave us extra portions of vegetables and potatoes without charging extra.

The service is incredibly helpful, professional & friendly! The atmosphere is incredible, & dining in the wine cellar is a must!! There are no wrong choices here, everything is seriously phenomenal! The steak tartare is a great starter to share with the table, the amount of crab in the crab cakes is fantastic, and serving the caesar in a parmesan tuile makes it that much more fun to eat! The boar shank I had made for the perfect winter meal, it is fall off the bone tender & the sweet potato gnocchi pairs so well with it! The salmon florentine is another beautiful dish & you have to enjoy the amazing wine selection they offer!

I lucked out with a fabulous server named James Brown (yes, really), who kept things smooth and upbeat. Now let's talk about the food. The crab cakes? Best ever. But the real surprise star was the brûléed lemon slice served with them--a simple lemon wedge, dusted with sugar and torched to golden perfection. I could've eaten a whole plate of just those lemons. The filet was cooked spot-on, super tender, and swimming in a ridiculously tasty Périgueux sauce--think madeira, truffle juice, maybe a little brown sugar, and whatever other magic goes into making something that good.

There was live music near our table, too! Drinks and presentation were great - I had the fig and thyme negroni sour, which was lovely. For shared plates, we started with the George's bank scallops which came with poblano pesto, saffron aioli, rutabaga, and butternut squash. Next we had the lasagna al forno with Wagyu beef, short rib, Italian sausage, ricotta, aged Gouda, and mozzarella. The combination sounded incredible, but it was a bit dry for our liking. Finally, we had the little neck clam bucatini with miso butter, oven dried tomatoes, scallion, and furikake. I would've appreciated a thicker or more flavorful sauce, but this was a nice experience overall and I'd come back!

They will play the entire record, which is awesome, but I think the difficulty is not knowing what vibe the patrons are feeling so the music can be hit or miss if you're not enjoying someone else's choice. I love the vibes and the cozy seating, it's perfect for a date night. The cocktails were good but definitely on the pricey side. I think it was $19 for mine and it was okay. Not worth that cost but I think they're paying more the ambiance than anything else. I'll definitely want to come back and chill but maybe consider a simple drink vs a signature cocktail. Everyone was super friendly and I really enjoyed my time!

The end. Now the bad news. Everything else. We are veterans restaurant/bar/cocktail lounge/ brewery patrons, so should've tuned into the fact that the place was empty at 7:30 even on a Tuesday night. My wife wanted a Chardonnay but was unfamiliar with one of them and asked for a taste. Seriously? What bartender sends a taste of wine in a shot glass with literally a quarter of that shot glass holding a "taste?" My wife had no idea what this wine was supposed to taste like so ordered a glass of Decoy, which was decent but quite overpriced. I ordered a Bellaire Brown out of the can which was cold & non-ruinable, thank God! We ordered a pizza with pepperoni, which used to be quite good here. Not anymore. As hard as it was to believe, in 8 slices there were NINE pieces of pepperoni. Total. We wondered if the kitchen was instructed to only use one piece per slice & maybe an extra one got slipped in by mistake. The pizza was undercooked, crust was tasteless, cheese bland, and sauce was not close to Italian. Maybe Contadina with a little oregano thrown into it. If you're a fan of Red Baron or other frozen pizza, stick to that because it's better. The best part of the pizza was the red pepper flakes we buried it with. I don't know if the new owners are cheap, unaware of why this place was once popular and populated, but we shan't be back soon. And from other recent reviews and the lack of crowd were not the only ones. Sad.

Oh how I wish this place would have been better. It's a…read morecute place and our server did a great job overall. Those are the highlights. My friend ordered the kabob dinner and said it was good...but over $20 for some veggies is crazy. My gyro and truffle fries....honestly I should have just sent them back. This is one of the most disappointing meals I've had recently. They put a tomato paste on it that I almost requested without, but trusted it would be interesting. It literally tasted like cheap canned tomato paste. Gross and certainly doesn't blend well on a gyro. The lamb meat itself had a decent taste, but the way it is served makes it difficult to eat in a pita. Gyros are typically chopped or shaved lamb which makes it easier to eat and helps ensure you're getting more lamb per bite. Served in these strips, it was just falling apart and not blending with the feta. The fries...terrible. Just terrible. $6 to sub truffle fries which seems like too much but I hadn't had them in a long time so had to go for it. Listed in subs it simply says truffle fries, so I didn't know they were going to be covered in liquid cheese. They ARE listed in appetizers with the full description but I didn't look there until after bc I didn't order an appetizer. The cheese was awful, completely overwhelmed the TINY bit of truffle taste, and SO salty! Take a look at the picture and decide for yourself if the gyro and fries is worth $23. I eat a lot of gyros, and this being the most expensive one I've had is the worst. Heads up that they charge a service fee. Doesn't bother me as I always tip at least 20% but no one pointed that out and I'm not really sure what it's for. Does that go into the servers pocket or? Won't be going back to find out.
