This is my perspective as a first time customer.
Parking: self parking is minimum. You must pay $20 to park
Service: The waitresses were nice but the service was not great. I went on a Saturday evening. There was no crowd and the place was almost empty by time I arrived, which was perfect. I ordered a drink, it took almost 20 mins for me to get my drink and an hour to receive my food. That includes the time frame of me sending my food back because I had a piece of hair in it, however, they compensated me. The waitress would leave for a long period of time to where another waitress had to come over and attempt to assist us with our order placement. Overall, I got there at 6:45 and didn't eat until almost 8. I also ordered an old fashion, and never received it.
Ambiance: The music was too loud. I didn't understand why the music was blasting when it was merely 6 couples there. Definitely not an establishment where you can have a casual conversation and catch a vibe. That evening, trap music was playing, which is fine I suppose, but it gave me club vibes. Nevertheless, it's all about preference and at my age, I'm not trying to turn up and watch women twerk as I eat. It depends on what type of scene you want and I'm more so of a grown and sexy type of woman.
Food: I ordered the oxtail Mac and cheese. I wasn't much of a fan. The meat tasted more like brisket and the overall dish was pretty dry. I was expecting a commingled of cheese and meat I noticed the macorroni barely had cheese on it. It didn't hit like I thought it would, but that's just my preference.
Drinks: I ordered a sidecar. Once I got my sidecar, I instantly realized it wasn't legit. The hue was off as well as the taste. Sidecars is one of my favorite adult beverages, so I know a sidecar when I see it. My friend brought to the waitress's attention regarding their errors throughout our dining experience and she mentioned my sidecar. The waitress (not our original waitress) shared with me that I ordered a sidecar during happy hour. She expressed how she was used to customers telling her what type of liquor they wanted in their sidecar. She also started that a happy hour sidecar consumes "alternative" liquor. I then said "I understand that, however, how do I supposed to know that? I am a first time customer who picked up the menu and saw sidecar and that's what I expected. I didn't even know it was happy hour"
For future reference, if your establishment is going to use cheaper liquor, you need to advertise it as such and inform customers of your variations of sidecars. Either put it on your menu or ensure your waitresses are explaining your happy hour drinks to consumers. As I type this review; it dawned on me, how is it that a $15 drink is considered a happy hour drink? So I paid $15 for a drink and didn't even get real liquor! Wow!!....
I was trying to keep this review professional. I wanted to sincerely provide constructive criticism and remove all emotions. However, as I reflect on how I got scammed with my sidecar, I am livid!
In conclusion, this establishment is horrible. I highly DON'T recommend. Definitely was my first and last time dining in at this establishment. read more
