We came here with friends last weekend for the first time. We had high expectations of the drinks…read moreconsidering they are a craft cocktail bar. We ordered several drinks off the menu. I had the spritz, which was good, but took over 30 minutes to receive even though we asked about it multiple times and everyone else at our table had received their drinks. My husband had an old fashioned which turned out to be only 5oz. The glass was not even half full. We all thought this had to be a mistake considering the cost and how poorly presented the drink was but the manager assured us that they measure properly. I think they should include this on the description because for $13, we were not expecting such a small drink. Our friends were not impressed with any of the drinks they ordered, either. My friend specifically ordered a double vodka shot in a short glass but received it in a tall glass, therefore watering down the drink. As for food, we shared the marinated feta appetizer and the charcuterie board. Both were good but the charcuterie only had one serving of meat (salami) and the rest were olives, peppers, cheese and grapes. For $19, we were expecting a little more. One of the cheeses, the largest portion, was a very spicy pepper cheese that none of us really enjoyed. The dip was very good - no complaints. We also ordered three pizzas. Our friend got the chicken pesto which he said was ok but nothing great. My husband got the short rib which he enjoyed. I did a make your own, which had literally no flavor at all. The crust was good but that was about it. I suppose that's my fault for picking the toppings but I thought it would taste better than it was. As for service - it was very slow and they were very inattentive. I wouldn't come back here or recommend it. I think as a restaurant that advertises for its drinks and pizza, both were lacking.

This spot is perfect for a date or a night out with friends. Bonus: I found out there's going to be a DJ every Saturday night for the foreseeable future.

I think cocktail bars like this are better enjoyed with quieter tones and less cackling. The service is very friendly. Not fast, but that's understandable since it was busy on a Saturday night. Old fashioned was very well-made and decently strong. Parking is ridiculous and we had to circle a bit before finding the entrance. I do love the secret newsstand entrance. Hint: look for the most worn-out looking item on the newsstand and grab that item and pull. ;)

However, we had two hamburgers and a shared order of onion petals and two sodas. It was $49 and change with a 20% tip. Pretty excessive. I wish I could say I would go back.

Just imagine a sign outside that said...come in and get a burger, share some onion rings/petals with a friend and a soda for just $25 per person Why did we come here? Some friends from out of town picked the place. If they had a burger combo special I might go back. I guess I'm just not used to this new level of gouging at restaurants. If it's works for them.
