Vibe: Chic setting perfect for whiny dates
With an ambiance that screams modern chic, the cozy decor sets the stage for intimate dinners. The buzzing drink selection makes every sip feel special, yet the empty booths whisper secrets of staffing woes as patrons engage in quiet conversations beneath the ambiance glow.
Okay Comfort
Bad Aesthetic
Too dark for some customers, detracting from the dining experience.
Perks: Parking is a breeze but service crawls
Finding parking is as easy as a Sunday stroll, but that’s where the ease ends. Reservations are a roulette; diners can be turned away despite seeming emptiness inside. Slow service paired with rude staff makes for a dining experience that hovers between disappointing and perplexing.
Great Parking
Ample, free parking consistently located in convenient, accessible lots.
Okay Staff
