The chicken biscuit I ordered was out of the park for me. However, we came back the very next day, around 3 pm.... Could not get service to save our lives. Sat at almost the exact same place at the bar. Bartender asked for my order, and then had to ask for it again after 5 mins. Finally brought it to me, but we had continued frustrations with the check service. No one would grab our card and so we dropped cash and left. So confusing after we'd had such a good time the night before. 4 stars bc the service and food on Friday was actually really good.

Our server was nice and attentive. The reason for the 3 stars is the food, it's average. I'll speak to the plates I tried, which were the Po Boy and the Red Snapper plate. Neither of those dishes stood out, where I could taste delight while eating them. I didn't feel they were made with love, moreso this is what it is. Another friend ordered the rib platter, which the meal was big in size, they could finish it.

They have lots of options, and some local taps. Who needs liquor, am I right? (Although, there's a few bars nearby If you're so inclined to grab a stiff drink before) I went to hear Joslyn & The Sweet Compression with Michael Coleman (Free Union). The set was great, all I can say is follow them. True talent.

I came here on a Wednesday night around 9:30pm for some dinner with my sister and friend. We got…read morelucky with getting a table because a group just left, you seat yourself. Our waitress was really nice. I did the Baked Goods cocktail and they did the Old Fashioned cocktail, all was really good. For food, I did the BLT with fries, my sister did the hot dog, and my friend did the Nasty biscuit. It was all so good! We even got the 7 layer chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream for dessert which was really rich but good. They had a live band which was cool playing smooth jazz.

The ambiance reminds me of the prohibition era as it is located in the basement of Tavern & Grocery. My husband and I met up with some of his co-workers and they had a 6 top table to accommodate our group. Service was also excellent this second visit. I had the Dilly Dally and the Roses Really Smell Like cocktails while my husband tried the Lemon Meringue Flip. For dinner we had the roasted cauliflower and pan seared cod fish. The roasted cauliflower had a nice flavor profile with shiitake mushrooms and castelvetrano olives. We were too full for dessert, but we will return.

The place was packed in the main room, though there's a separate room that they opened up. The staff was friendly and cleared tables promptly to help us find a spot to sit. I believe there were some food options, though we did not order any. We did an old fashioned and a bar tenders choice. Not sure what it was, but it was delicious!! It's dark and moody, with lots of candles. I believe you can also enter through the back. Restroom was very gross... but other than that, a great experience. We were just passing through, but I would absolutely recommend and go back.

Lovely afternoon at The Paramount Theatre where we attended a ballet production of Snow White and…read morethe Seven Dwarves. Our tickets were inexpensive for genuinely good view of the stage in row J. Ushers were friendly and eager to assist everyone who needed help finding their seats. The antique decor, paintings of 17th century ladies & gents, and yellow upholstery all give an authentic live theater experience. There was a strange little wall mounted water fixture (see picture) that I really liked even though I'm not sure what it is practically for. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the performance. We expected live instruments and were surprised it was set to prerecorded orchestral music, but the sound quality was great so no worries. My only real complaint is that when we stopped by earlier that afternoon to buy our tickets, the fellow at the window seemed really put out . He answered our questions, but it felt like we were imposing on him. There was no one in line behind us and it's our first time going to a ballet since childhood, so we had some newbie questions. To engage with something like this for the first time is to step outside of our comfort zone, and I wish that the guy helping us had shown a more generous tone in the customer service department. His palpable annoyance very nearly scared us off buying tickets to this show at all.

But no, they let people stand in front of the chairs 3-4 deep, so you can't see squat. One lady kept trying to get people to move so people sitting could see; her vigilance (and apparent anger) was unsettling. I could see it might have ended up being a "situation" but the group she was with left to find a better spot (just before I did). I ended up moving around, went to the back of the seating area (behind the grass) which was ok, except it standing room only, and people are jibber-jabbering, getting their drink (and smoke) on, not really giving two shits about the band playing. Pretty much ruined it for me. Probably won't go back.
