We stopped in this place while the sidewalk was so crowded and we were hungry. This place was like refuge. The a/c, food, and music were all so good. According to my companions, the fish tacos were the best they've ever had. I loved there mac n cheese and it was delicious. read more

Three Muses - Jazz & Blues Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

As I walked from the French Quarter to try this new trendy restaurant, my first encounter was that the front doors were locked, at around 8:45 pm. The smokers outside said "You have to wait for the hostess before you can go in". My immediate thoughts were that has to be a violation of a fire code, to lock the front doors. Once the hostess unlock the door and came to the sidewalk to greet us, the first thing out of her mouth was do you have a reservation. My response was, "No. it showed on the yelp app that there was no wait time." The hostess laughed and said "Oh, we don't use Yelp". She said she would try to find us a table for two and went back inside and locked the door. She did come back and said she had a table for us and it was awkwardly located, behind a pole and very close to the bar. The way they had the chairs arranged I decided to move one of the chairs to the other side of the table, and the hostess said "Well we need to leave that area open so people can walk through." My response was, "I was moving it to allow people to walk through to get to the bar". When our waiter came to the table he suggested that I move my chair back around to the side where people were getting their drinks. He said "Well we need to keep an area where I was sitting, open so people can get by." My response to him was, "The other side had more people coming and going to the bar !!!" They wanted me out of the way of how the staff was walking, it had nothing to do with keeping a clear lane for patrons. So when I ordered the lobster Rangoon, which is the reason I wanted to try this restaurant, our waiter said, "That's not available. Our menu changes all the time." None of the pictures from Yelp, of the food that was considered great was available on the menu. I paid for my one drink and we left because of the awful table selection and the staff's attitude. In fact as we were walking out halfway down Frenchmen Street, the rude hostess, tracked me down asking if I paid !!!! This was the same hostess that said they don't use Yelp !!! read more

My wife and I effectively waited 24 hours to get in after we discovered that reservations are almost a necessity to sit at a table. We were seated just before the band started, the wait staff was attentive and very friendly. Our drinks were delicious. We ordered the bulgogi rice bowl and the crab Rangoon. I was amazed. The Rangoon were crisp and sweet, and the crab stuffing was perfect. The savory crab was balanced well with the pineapple chili dipping sauce. I would recommend the Three Muses to anyone. Great food, great staff, awesome music and an atmosphere that will set your night off right. read more

Three Muses - The crab rangoon...amazing. - Jazz & Blues Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Great little neighbourhood live music bar. We had live swing band playing setting a great mood to our dinner. Food was good but not exceptional. What really impressed me were the cocktails & the two charming ladies working behind the bar. They were very knowledgeable & skillful at their craft. If I could I would rate the bar staff at 6 stars out of 5. Good job. Oh and the hostess at the front was very charming as well. I would definitely come back. read more

Very sad evening at Three Muses, after years of coming here and loving it. The food was still pretty good, tho this year it took 45 min to receive most of it. The music, unfortunately, was 1) *awful*, and 2) not what was advertised, at all. The waitress explained this was because the manager had changed their plans after we had booked. Or that the hostess had been misinformed when we booked. Not Her Problem. So we were finished eating by the time the actual promised band came on. The waitress told us we could hang out at the bar as long as we wanted. Packed by that time of course. You could tell somebody knew this was the main event because the place went from 1/2 full to SRO just in time for the performance, as we had intended to do. That band was as advertised. But they weren't much better, and that is why this is a 1-star review: a screwup is one thing; bad music is the kiss of death. So disappointing, this was the one place we made sure to reserve at and we're looking forward to it so much. They lost their muses. read more

Amazing place. A must go when in New Orleans. Make reservations ahead of time, expect only allowed to be at your seat for 1.5 hours, and expect yummy tapas with yummy cocktails paired with amazing live jazz. read more

I'm sitting in this tiny, cramped, and absolutely AMAZING SPOT! You walk in, there is an ordered chaos like no other. The music by the door is a great addition to the vibe. FOOD: Gulf fish tacos- small portion with amazingly big flavor. Only complaint? I wish there were 100 to an order. Wow, so delicious Housemade Shells & Cheese- everything was cooked perfectly. Seriously, perfectly. Then there was the Steak Frites. Hey should rename it to Heaven In Your Mouth. The medium rare steak was spot on. The béarnaise sauce was amazing. The dish was so good, I'm damn near speechless. read more

They only place we found that had jazz and such a nice singer. Was a little annoyed we could not get a table unless we ordered food and then did get some food at the bar. The drinks were very good but the show was the best read more

Ordered the sublime Lamb Sliders, seasoned perfectly! The Pork Belly was great and well balanced with apple chutney and scallion pancakes. The fish tacos are refreshing.The fish is fresh and succulent with subtle flavors that tease the palette. The tempura shrimp was very good but it lacked some flavor. The cocktails were delicious and the jazz was fabulous. A great spot to settle down in the French Quarter. Enjoy the music and dig in. read more

Great food, terrific traditional New Orleans Jazz. The night's special was Spaetzle- OUTSTANDING! It's definitely worth a wait. Enjoy! read more

Just what we wanted on Frenchmen Street: live music, cool atmosphere, and great eats! Small and cozy, this join was perfect for our Thursday night dinner. We split the crostini, fish tacos, and steak frites. All amazing! We then sampled the home-made ice cream which was also super dope! Staff was wonderful! Music was great! Couple making out at the bar was gross. read more

Oh Hell to the yes. Ma Moons Bulgogi Fice Bowl, with duck egg ! Korean food in New Orleans !!!!!!!! Tempura Shrimp. And Butternut Squash Ravioli. All flippin' amazing. Good music. Lickety split service, ate at the bar, surpassed the 1 1/2 hr wait for a table . I freaking love this place read more

A cozy restaurant and bar with great cocktails and tasty small plates! We arrived before the rest of our group and the hostess kindly escorted us in since it was cold out. We ordered some cocktails. I got the Rif, which is the bartender's creation of the day. It was a take on a whiskey sour and was boozy and delicious! My fiance ordered the Chai cocktail which tasted pretty similar to mine. I didn't get a lot of chai flavor. They pushed some tables together for our rowdy group of 6. The waitress was extremely patient with us and was willing to chat and laugh with us. She made our experience even better! She suggested two plates per person, I would suggest one small plate and one solo dish per person. Thankfully, no one was super hungry because these plates are small! We ordered the bacon wrapped dates, the braised quail, the Israeli couscous, the fish tacos, shrimp tempura, and pommes frites. The couscous was so amazing!! I'm going to try to make it myself. The dates, pommes frites, and tacos were great. The braised quail was small but the jambalaya was good. And the shrimp tempura was more like popcorn shrimp. Would skip that one next time. The musicicians were a quiet piano soloist and a duo. We were overpowering them with our talking (sorry!) and they didn't really add to the ambiance. The food and drinks were delicious and the place was cozy. Better for a date night or quiet night for a couple rather than a rowdy group like we were. read more

Came here on a whim a few years ago. Was hoping it was as good as I remembered. I Was Not Disappointed. Everyone I brought with me was really impressed. Standouts include the pork belly and the fish tacos. Cocktail program is on point as well. Go. See for yourself. read more

Awesome place to eat at on Frenchman St. Would recommend making a reservation ahead of time through the Resy website if you are coming on the weekend. The only misleading thing is the plates are VERY small. This is for sure a tapas style restaurant so if you're really hungry plan to get at least 3-4 plates. We split 3 plates between 2 people which was not enough food, but it wasn't worth another $9-$15 for a small plate. The plates we did order however were super good, especially the Mac n Cheese! read more

Great Location, but a bit on the grungy side. Don't bother dressing up. Kind of crowded inside. But we had a good soup and Cajun food. I think I ordered the Macaroni and Cheese ... WOW, that was delicious. The best part was that I had a nice Flight of Bulleit Bourbon. It comes on a little wooden stand. You have three different shots, of varying age and taste (and value) ... it lasted throughout our spicy dinner and was just what the doctor ordered. They had a cool jazz band playing, complete with trumpet and piano ... That was fun. I just thought it was a little warm and muggy inside and the service could have been a tad faster .. we enjoyed ourselves though. Not bad food. But it's just too crowded there in the French Quarter. And I am a tall guy, so my seat was crammed between a wall and the stage. I couldn't hear myself think, and I had to read my wife's lips to understand her. Kind of claustrophobic. 3 stars. read more

Tasty vegetarian options that even our kids enjoyed. Very friendly staff. Festive location. Will definitely be back next time we're in French Quarter. read more

The ambiance and live music here is fantastic. The band was pleasant and not overbearingly loud. However the whole "you have to be out in 1.5 hours" is a major turn off. I could understand if people were sitting around not ordering but if you're ordering food and drink that makes no sense. The food was decent but nothing to write home about. The service however was terrible. Since everything is served tapas style the food comes out as it's ready. Unfortunately my tacos took so long that everyone was finished eating and I still didn't have my food. Then I saw the table next to me (which arrived 30 min after us) served not one but two taco plates. When I asked the server what's going on, she gave me a really bitchy attitude and acted as though she was talking to a child. She goes "yeah like I said the kitchen is backed up." To which I said yes but not enough She did take them off the bill but her attitude was so off putting and condescending I didn't even care at that point. The tacos still took another 15 min after that. Also they have 2 different websites with different menus which is confusing. I went there based on one menu and got something different. Annoying. read more

Loved this place. It should be stated, because I didn't know this before going, that these are SMALL tapas plates. Not a full meal. You'll have to order at least 3-4 between 2 people. The drinks are great. I was deathly hungover when we went for dinner from a rough night on Bourbon St the day before but I could still stomach the drinks here without gagging. I had the earl grey drink and the Muse which has blueberry in it. Both were really good. We shared: Fries (they were so good and I don't even like feta 5/5) Pork belly (5/5 stars) Beet salad (5/5 stars) Steak and cake (4/5 - too over priced for size) Sweet potato gnocchi (3.5/5 just didn't WOW me) Our companions mentioned they really loved the lamb sliders but I didn't try any so I can't say. There was really nice ambient jazz being played by a live band while we were there. It set the mood and was relaxing. If I had one complaint, it's the weird lady who stands at the door and gets offended if you try to walk past her and get in (she didn't even look like an employee). She clearly is very uppity about being in control of who goes in. Really annoying and rude. Other than that, I would come back. read more

Amazing food. Amazing service. And amazing jazz music. Couldn't have asked for a better way to top off a Saturday night!

Dined here on 6/11/17. We made reservations for 3 at 8pm. We went specifically for Linnzi Zaorski. She did not disappoint. Excellent set. We had 3 small plates, shrimp tempura, bruschetta and the steak/crab. All were great. The service was also excellent and the hostess accommodating. The bartender was rude. We will definitely be back, as Linnzi is one of our favorites and we are moving back to Nola. read more

Not somewhere I'd eat again. Everything was extremely dry and needed a sauce. They are an Asian fusion restaurant and didn't even have sriracha.. wouldn't recommend. read more

Thought the place had great ambience. However asked Kate the hostess if we could move to the next table that came open just as we were sat, for a better view of the musicians. Was told no. 7 or 8 min later when seating 2 new guests, offered them up the requested table along with another and asked for thier preference, right in front of me. Felt like I didn't deserve the accommodation. Also asked if I could put an order for more food, but since I didn't ask my server, was not helped. Just paid check and left. Went from "cool place" to "rude staff" in 25 minutes. Will skip next time in the neighborhood. Madeline and female bartender were great though. Bummer their support staff was off-putting. read more

Mmm! This place was amazing. Band was divine!!! The food was scrumptious and top notch craft cocktails. I will be back in every visit

My evening at the Three Muses was honestly my favorite evening while visiting New Orleans. It was casual, but nice, and super low key. Music was great but not so loud you couldn't chat with your group. Drinks were DELICIOUS, hands down the best I had, and the food was amazing. I talked my family into getting some vegetarian plates (the cauliflower salad and Brussels sprouts) and even though they begrudgingly let me order them, ended up LOVING them. Would definitely go back if I visit New Orleans again. read more

Made reservations because I heard this was a great spot to have dinner and catch some live music in a casual, fun atmosphere. Right on both counts. The food is surprisingly elevated and delicious. Three Muses hits a sweet spot between "interesting" and "everyone". Service was also way better than expected. Before you plan to visit, definitely make a reservation. Also, check out the available shows and their times. Three Muses only books your table for 1 1/2 hours, so if you want to hear a particular artist or want to make sure you aren't there between sets, plan ahead. You may be able to walk in and grab a seat at the bar, yet don't count on it being easy. They check your reservations at the door, so while you might be able to walk up, you will still most likely have a wait at peak times. read more

You'd almost think this was a roaring '20s speakeasy if not for the big picture window. A few people said this place was good, so off we went to Frenchman St again to see what was what. There was a very mellow 4 piece band there that plays on Sundays, and I'm a sucker for a stand up bass. The crowd was more adult with some hipsters sprinkled in. Cozy with good sight lines except for the pole in the middle. This is definitely a cocktail place. In fact they have bartender's special that they just make up every day. The execution of the drinks and the music was really nice. I should have tried some food, but your always eating in this town. read more

My man is known as "The Bar God". Let me tell you why. No matter where we go, no matter what time it is, no matter how popular a bar is, this man will manage to get a couple of bar stools within a minute of walking in. The place can be jumpin' in a packed house and still, somehow, magically, 2 bar stools will open up and voila... we have a seat. It's the day before New Years Eve... New Orleans is packed with tourists, drunks, and misfits. Every damn bar, every restaurant, good or bad, was packed. No reservations. All first come, first serve. There was a line around 3 Muses like it was the hottest club in Manhattan. We walked up to the hostess, where she proceeded to tell us that they weren't even taking anymore names. We were both sorely disappointed. All week we were looking forward to coming here. It was the best food we had on our first trip to the city. Anyway... We walked away like 2 kids that just lost their pup. We wandered around the open market across the street when The Man says, "Hey.. Let's go back and see if we can get lucky." I looked at him like, "Are you out of your goddamned mind?!" Ugh... but, I agreed. I waited across the street while I watched him have a few words with the hostess. He signals me to come over, and "BAM!!". The hostess tell us to wait at the bar and have a drink and she'll call us when there was a table available. I fuckin love this man... We walked over to the bar to order a couple of cocktails, and what happens??? 2 bar stools open up right in front of us and we're in... UNBELIEVABLE. The food... Still the best damn food in NOLA. The menu I noticed has changed so I won't go into details of what we ate because it'll probably change again but expect to be blown away by an explosion of flavors. (make sure to get the lamb burgers) The chef certainly has a sweeter palate so, for some of you, you might not be so keen on a few of their plates, but I thought it was fucking fantastic. The bartenders mix a helluva a cocktail. Try their cocktail menu. You won't go wrong. This is a VERY popular joint. Prepare to wait. That is, unless your prayers to the Bar God are heard. Amen... read more

Three Muses, you are amazing. From your Fried Pickles with that bangin' homemade ranch to those Falafel Sliders, I love every part of you (except the meaty parts). No, I don't mind ordering at the bar. Can I have some Feta Fries? Hey, that live music you've got going is pretty rad, too. I don't mind squeezing in shoulder to shoulder with strangers to enjoy you either. If you were Reese Witherspoon and I were Mark Wahlberg, I would totally F.B. You on a roller coaster. *bonus points for those who have seen 'Fear' and who know 'F.B.' doesn't stand for Facebook. read more

What can I say? I love you Three Muses. The first time I came to this bar was a little over a year ago, I came to celebrate passing my qualifying exams, and because I was in such a good mood, I ended up ordering half the menu, only half cause I would have seriously damaged my wallet - hey, I'm only a grad student! Since then, I have come to Three Muses on several occasions, mainly for the food and REALLY for the desserts, I've had every single dessert offered here. I have not been disappointed with any of the dishes that I have had here! My favourite? Banana Marscapone Struedel by far! The Peach and Blueberry Cobbler coming in second... Okay for some real foodz other than desserts, Kurobuta Pork Belly, Steak & Cake, Ms Moon's Boolgogi Rice Bowl, Lobster Spring Rolls, and Lamb Sliders. Yes I may have named half their menu, but that's just how good they are! Oh and don't forget to check out their daily specials! I love the food, I love the fancy sounding drinks (the sips I've had, since I can only have so much alcohol), and I love the live music. Did I also mention that it's incredibly romantic? Three Muses is definitely my favourite spot on Frenchmen and I frequently just want to come here. read more

Three Muses is for real connoisseurs of culture, good food and music not those looking for a tourist trap! What drew me to Three Muses is it's inventive menu, romance, creativity and charm. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=424UnUra0Xs It's not a chain (I still can't believe people eat in chain restaurants in Nola) and it is not a tourist trap like Mothers restaurant which all true food lovers with taste avoid if they are in the know before they go according to Chow Houndhttp://chowhound.chow.com/topics/661069. If all you ate in NOLA were at expensive restaurants famous restaurants and or tourists traps you have missed experiencing NOLA! Three Muses is listed as French, Cajun and Creole. New Orleans has true fusion cuisine meaning it is not made up by restaurant owners to make money. New Orleans has a fusion of cultures so the cuisine is a reflection on the culture. http://www.bestofneworleans.com/gambit/benefit-for-new-york-at-three-muses/Content?oid=2099590 It has romantic ambiance as seen in this Youtube video in terms of the ambiance . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6tMiSczO3q However the tables are a bit uncomfortable. I was looking forward to Three Muses so much more than anywhere else we had on our list in Nola! We went on a Wednesday night. There was a line 45 minutes long. They do not take cell numbers or have a real system they just tell you to come back. We kept going back. It was too cold to wait so long. We were in Nola during a cold spell and I got sick from the cold. When we finally got in there were signs all over saying you must buy one drink per person per set! The seats were uncomfortable and the door was open with the cold air coming in. If you look at pictures of their FB page it looks spacious but when we were there seats were all cramped together. The young lady taking names was rude, she was not even paying attention to her list of names. She kept letting people in front of us in spite of the fact that we came back early several times. Several hours went by with the same pattern. We finally made it in. But things didn't get too much better. It is a bit chaotic in there. I have to refer you to this review. This reviewer says it better than I do. http://www.yelp.com/biz/three-muses-new-orleans#hrid:VsLBIA-cW-uA_PiPfgX0hg The restaurant was out of everything I wanted to eat. I had to leave it was too uncomfortable and we didn't get to try the food I know it is good other wise there would not be lines when other places are empty but I did not have a good experience there! Plus they were out of everything I wanted and it was still early at least for us New Yorkers it was early. We could not get a cab back to the hotel and had to walk in the cold at night! It was too stressful for me! I am very disappointed in my experience there because I know it is good based on the menu, the lines and ambiance. The lines were not filled with tourists but locals. What I didn't know was there was apparently a big name there that night which is why they charged per set. I did not know that. You can keep up with them on FB, https://www.facebook.com/ThreeMuses However they had no special announcements on FB the night we went so we were not prepared for the long wait or cold open doors. It was a big waste of time for us and I wish they had a more efficient way of taking names and keeping up with how many people come so tables do not have to be squeezed together. I have to give it 3 stars for my experience since we wasted an entire night of our very short vacation which I got sick waiting in the cold. Nola had a cold spell when we were there. Again I am very disappointed. But how long we waited and the fact that it was so cramped and the fact that they were out of everything made it a disappointing experience for us. I need to add that it was mid week not a weekend and not on a tourist street. I am giving it 3 stars to be fair since I didn't get to try the food. I usually do not review places I have not eaten at like many Elites seem to do such as trying to be first to review saying when it opens I hope to try it. That is not me. That is those who are Elite so they can keep their review count up. But since it ruined an entire night of our vacation I needed to review it hoping they might change their methods hoping it won't happen to others. The music had not started yet either. . If it is that crazy of a wait to get in perhaps there should be a cover charge and not charge per set. In that case what happens is people wait around for the music and the tables are never cleared. Especially when music has not started yet. The people inside were obviously waiting for the music and did not plan on leaving. I am sure it is a nice place but not run efficiently to accommodate the guests! It would have been more honest to turn us away!We did not take pictures we forgot we were so upset! read more

We came here because of the solid menu items for vegetarians (was especially looking forward to tofu bulgogi!) but all the food we ordered was just kinda disappointing. The tofu bulgogi was bland both in flavor and texture, exhibiting none of the marinated, grilled goodness of normal bulgogi. The mac and cheese was bland and overcooked. My partner's sazerac was a disappointment. What saved this place for us was the live music. THE LIVE MUSIC WAS OUTSTANDING, I loved it to death: The night we were there, it was a band with two violinists, a bassist, and a guy playing a washboard. One of the happiest things I've ever seen. It's just too bad about the food. read more

I love Three Muses. It's not for everyone, as there are some drawbacks (see below). But the positives are so good that I consider it a 6 star place that loses 1 star to end up back at 5. 1) The music is always good. They're an in-demand venue. They don't feature scrubs. Of course, the scrubs in New Orleans are better than most musicians in other towns, but you aren't going to get stick with an "off night" musician at Three Muses. 2) The food is great. Every single thing, from the small plate appetizers, to the housemade ice cream. The menu is filled with a variety of culinary styles and ingredients to satisfy anyone, including vegetarians. And while you might think they'd do nothing well by doing so much, the opposite is true - they do it all well. The Korean rice bowl is better than the rice bowl at the Korean restaurants in town. 3) The cocktails are great. This is a place that would be packed if they served nothing but shots and beer. Plenty of the clientele are there for shots and beer, or just a glass of wine. And yet they put in the work to have a great cocktail list, not to mention featuring a great selection of liquors. Music, Food, and Spirits are the "Three Muses" Here are the drawbacks, just so you know what to expect when you go to Three Muses: 1) It's always busy, and it's small. Make reservations, or go in a small, flexible group that's willing to squeeze into whatever space is available. Don't be disappointed when you show up at 7p on a Friday night with a group of 5 and they look at you like you're an idiot for thinking you can just walk in. Even if you have a reservation don't be disappointed with the table you get. Every table has its drawbacks, and the staff is doing their best to get as many people in every night. 2) It's always loud, and it's small. When there is a band on, it's really loud. Don't expect to hold a long conversation. Unless you're at the bar, or in standing room only, don't expect a conversation unless you are willing to get intimate with your companion's ear. In other words, it's a bad first date place... and a great third date place. 3) And it's small. They ditch the dinner tables at night to let more people in to see the music. They don't (can't) take reservations for more than 6. It's crowded. People will run into your table. Servers will have trouble getting through the crowd. You'll have trouble getting up to the bar to get a drink. Just relax and deal with it. This is part of living in New Orleans, a nearly land-locked city with a big city vibe crammed into a fraction of the space that most cities have. And it's part of the charm of Three Muses. read more

First thing I must say is that the chef is really a close friend and I have gotten to know almost everyone there and they are some cool peeps, sooo... This place is awesome!!! The food is really good and they will change it up. my favorites are the pork belly, lobster egg rolls, fish taco's, steak n cake... did I mention the pork belly?!!! Next is the music. Live local acts every night representing traditional New Orleans jazz. It gets really crazy on Friday's with Glen Andrews! I love the different variates that they have during the week. St Louis Slim, Gail Holiday to name a couple. And then you are on Frenchmen St to enjoy all the madness and fun that is there! read more

If it were possible to give zero stars, I would. The ambiance was great and performers were solid, but customer service was non-existent. We put our name in at 7:59 with a few people ahead of us. After watching 4 parties who put their names on the waiting list well after us be seated, we decided to inquire about our status...58 minutes into our wait. We were dismissed by the hostess who was wearing dirty gym shorts and running shoes. I brushed it off and decided to go to the bar as I was eager to give this place my money in exchange for food after reading the great reviews. I then watched as a couple that "had been waiting over 20 minutes" complained to the bartender and was seated in front of me. I then politely asked the hostess in dirty gym shorts if our table was ready (almost half of the restaurant was empty at this point), and was rudely dismissed again. It is now 1:44 minutes into my wait time, we are in a different restaurant, already eating food, and still have not been texted about our table being ready. I shan't return. read more

Love this! Fun and funky, live music-- piano and sax to take us through our evening. The tapas selections were delicious-- recommend the lobster lemongrass and Mac and cheese. Gumbo was good, but no okra? Cauliflower crostini a little bland. Bulgogi was yummy, though husband (very familiar with authentic Korean) was not a big fan. Drinks were delicious! The Muse, then Call me in the Morning.... yum! read more

Adorable. Sensual. Funky. Classy. This gastropub in the heart of Frenchmen street is the perfect getaway from the ruckus and debauchery of Bourbon street. They do not serve pizza nor daiquiris here (thank god)... Tourists: If you are looking for a real New Orleans Jazz experience...this is your place. The drinks are reasonably priced, stiff, and tasty. read more

This was the only eating experience I had in NOLA that didn't blow me away. How can you have a gastropub or any kind a restaurant that doesn't have coffee? I was just trying to get a little caffeinated before our next bar crawl. I made the mistake of ordering ice tea, and it did not taste fresh at all. I was trying to come up with a tactful way to say, "Hey, was this brewed yesterday and you left it in the canister all night?" Which, the tactful way to say this is when he asks if you want a refill say, "Is this fresh-brewed?" To wit he will reply, "It's comes out of the soda gun." Serious ew. Even Denny's fresh-brews the ice tea. And they have coffee too so you don't have to settle for ice tea when you really wanted coffee. But they also have these things at every gastropub I've been too, so you don't think I'm comparing this place to Denny's. Anyway, my perchance for freshly brewed beverages aside, the food was okay. I felt a little foolish for not asking what kind of scallops were in the whatever dish we got with scallops. I'm going to start saying, "I got totally bay scalloped!" when I get something that is technically what it is but not at all what I expected. They really should change the name: sea scallops can be "scallops" and bay scallops can be "skallops" like crab with a "k", poor imitations of the real thing. Maybe I will start saying "I got skalloped with a "k""... Anywho, we got something that was risotto and something that was pasta, both were a little al dente to my taste and there's no accounting for taste so there you go. But most restaurants I go to don't serve the pasta too al dente for my taste. Maybe that's what gastropub means. The stand out of the meal was the ravioli that we had as a starter. Well, actually the band was probably the stand out, they were great. So, if you do not require a brewed beverage to enjoy your meal or dessert (dessert without coffee? really?) and you don't mind skallops or pasta molto al dente, this might be the spot for you. read more

I really wanted to like this place. The food was decent and the music was great. The service was another story. When we arrived we were told the wait was one hour so we put our names down and came back an hour later. We ended up waiting yet another hour to be let in. During this hour, the hostess kept letting groups in to sit at the bar. I was totally fine with this until i learned that they were letting these groups sit down at the tables that we were supposedly in line for outside. When we got in, we were told that we had to order our food at the (crowded) bar. No table service. Long story short, we got in at 11pm, the band had only one remaining set, and the kitchen was closing. Terrible service, terrible night. read more
