We asked for a refund on the drinks and they agreed. We had ordered food and it is over and hour and a half with no food. Finally after threatening to leave the food came out. The burger I ordered came out and it was literally a hockey puck. I think it was on the grill for an hour and a half. We had a total of 6 burgers and they were all completely charred. The fries were completely raw. This was probably the worst experience I've ever had at a restaurant in my life. Not to mention the burgers were 18$ each with a tiny basket of about 5 fries. We ended up forcing them to take the food off our bill as well. Stay as far away from this place as possible

We ended up with a water/ drinks server who was fairly new, a bus/salad server who hadn't quite finished his training ( reaching across a seated person rather than serving from the outside of the table to each of us. He also had a bad habit of hooking a thumb into each salad). Nice kid, though. Waiter was difficult to understand clearly, but then I'm slightly deaf. All those nits picked aside, the food was terrific. The four of us had Caesar salads which were nicely done with dried capers instead of anchovy with an overall mellow palette. I prefer more lemon and garlic but that's just me. Most restaurants we visit are heavy-handed with presentation. Between the four of us we had a steak, a chicken zataar, and steak frites. Beef was cooked perfectly in a gentle, subtley-seasoned sauce. Best fries in town! Nice veggie medley. The chicken was pretty good. Not memorable, but a well executed idea. Portion sizes were just right for a summer evening. The most stunning taste of the night was the Earl Grey Crème Broulee. Really nice smoky flavor, not too sweet. Paired with Espresso. Overall, pleasant experience and a satisfying meal.

Never heard of it. We didn't go that day but we do plan on it. They have a fall drink menu. I tried an apple mojito for the first time and it was delicious. We ordered a beef brisket sandwich and their Hell Fired Pizza. The brisket was dry. I asked for a side of BBQ sauce and it helped, plus I did really like the sauce. The bun was toasted perfect. The pizza was good, didn't care for the sauce, it needed more flavor but the toppings were great and a lot of it. I also liked the crust. Definitely will be going back.

There was nobody in there but us, and it was very quiet which was different since we usually go on weekends. It was interesting, just didn't know that was the vibe on weekdays. The bartender helped us immediately and we got out drink quickly. Now, my complaint is the price. This small cheese board was $25, it doesn't look as small in the pictures, but I promise the board was TINY. A quarter of a baguette, prepackaged olives, a few bites of cheese each? NOT worth the money. If I come back, I will not be getting any food that's for sure..::

The service was really good although we were there for lunch when they just opened so it wasn't busy at all and the bartender was also our waitress. Very sweet. The interior is very clean and appears to be newly renovated, very nice. They offered outdoor seating but I was expecting something a little nicer than the few tables they had near the entrance that I thought might be for waiting with something nicer on the other side but that was it so we opted for inside. Overall 3.5 stars for the food and 4.5 for the ambiance and service.
