Vibe: Stifling ambience awaits

The ambiance, or rather the lack of it, leaves a lot to be desired. Between the lackluster food and dismal atmosphere, one finds their dining experience turning increasingly sour with each passing minute. Even promising cocktails fail to salvage the overall displeasure shrouding the mealtime.

  • Okay Drinks

    Great food and cocktails, but nothing else on the menu was exciting.

  • Bad Ambiance

    Ambience lacking, unflavorful food made experience overall poor.

Perks: Parking woes aplenty

As if the dull food and oppressive vibe were not enough, they throw in a very problematic parking situation into the mix as well. Amid the rare positive remarks about group dining, the appalling service marked by rude and unprofessional waitstaff only serves to add insult to injury.

  • Great For Groups

    Accommodating, spacious for large parties, great for group dining.

  • Bad Service

    Waitress was rude, unprofessional, with terrible attitude, ruining the dining experience.
