Vibe: Romantic haven marred by noise

It caters to those seeking romantic settings with its sophisticated decor and intimate ambiance. With its high-quality drink selection, it expertly ups the ante. However, the 'trendy' label can be a mark of Cain as the overwhelming noise can avert the tranquil diner. Also, the shared outdoor seating might not be everyone's cup of tea.

  • Great Drinks

    Extensive, high-quality drink options praised for enhancing dining experience.

  • Okay Views

    Some views are obstructed, yet the place remains appealing overall.

  • Bad To Entertain

    Music too loud and disruptive, negatively affecting the dining atmosphere.

Perks: Far from ideal convenience

While it does well accommodating large groups, it slips on most convenience aspects. Limited parking, long waits for a reserved table, and a menu not so friendly to kids and vegetarians can cause skipped heartbeats. The service too leaves a lot to desired. Interestingly, the outdoor space, besides lacking charm, is a shared one.

  • Great For Groups

    Spacious seating, easily accommodates large groups for a great dining experience.

  • Okay For Diets

    Vegetarian options available though mostly side dishes; could improve.

  • Bad For Kids

    Lacks kid-friendly options; not accommodating for children's dining.
