During this time of year, they transform the space with their Miracle pop-up, which made the atmosphere absolutely perfect for a festive work event. Even though it's their busiest season, they were incredibly accommodating and allowed us to host our luncheon. The Owner and General Manager were both extremely responsive and helpful from start to finish. They offered thoughtful suggestions on catering and the ideal setup, and patiently answered every question I had along the way. The staff was outstanding--attentive, friendly, and genuinely funny--which made the entire experience even more enjoyable. Everyone had a fantastic time and couldn't stop talking about the ambience. Truly a 10/10 experience. Highly recommend for both private events and a great night out!

Walking in, the black and gold nuances strike you immediately and sitting at the bar, watching each drink being made is really quite fun. Their cocktail menu is absolutely spectacular. What a wide range of choices with all the major types of liquor available in one form or another. My bartender developed the program and she was super knowledgeable about it. I didn't try any of the food, so I can't comment on that, but for a pre or post dinner cocktail, I can definitely say this was an awesome spot to come out to.

Came here for an anniversary dinner and left a bit disappointed. I have heard good things but…read moreturned out to be a very mediocre dinner. Got a burger and upgraded to truffle fries. Just one burger option and limited toppings. Server was very nice but didn't write down the order, and when it came my burger was missing the cheese and onion. I wasn't sure if they would take it back or what so I didn't eat anymore and it took her a decent amount of time to come and check on us after we got our food. I let her know what was missing and she said it was her fault and asked if I wanted it fixed. I said yeah and she went and got a cold piece of cheese and slice of onion and put it on a plate and gave to me to put on my own burger. I'd expected a little bit better service and I'm certainly not someone who demands top tier service from every spot. Fries were crispy but needed some parm or an aioli sauce to dip in. Also minor note but I had some fries left on my plate and when she came to collect plates I had food in my mouth so I couldn't say anything but she took the plate and my fries! They should always ask if there's any food left on the plate. Burger was decent overall, but definitely nothing special. Environment was cool and I'm sure they have got some other delicious items on the menu but for the price paid and service received, I'd go somewhere else next time.

Looking for something different and awesome for a party?…read more Here it is. XBox Ones, PS4s and Wii U units as far as the eye can see. Old school stand-up arcade games filled with MAME emulators of every game you remember as a kid. A bar. A really, REALLY nice bar. And you can stock it yourself for your event. Plenty of room for like 40-50 people easily, plus a dj or even a band, and it's definitely not your usual place to go. It's not open for walk-ins, you HAVE to make a reservation for a party in order to get access. But seriously, from a kid's birthday party to a starting point (or even an entire night) of a bachelor party...this place should absolutely be on your list to consider.
