Brunch review only: I was sad to have not enjoyed this place for brunch and did not want to leave a…read morereview. Needs flavor, not salt, just flavor. To sum up our visit, the food didn't have any wow factor at all. Chicken texture is nice and crispy but no seasoning penetrates the actual inside. Waffle, same thing -- fluffy perfection, missing a buttermilk, vanilla or important flavor component. We tried a wine flight -- so so. Most of them were very sweet. Reluctantly (and both excitedly) ordered a dozen oysters -- ate two of twelve. We paid for them but they weren't fresh and they were huge. We could both smell and taste them. House-made biscuits needed a buttermilk taste added and jelly tasted like your everyday Market's Best/Welch's strawberry jam. I would come back for dinner as the menu sounds AMAZING, but unfortunately brunch is overhyped. Maybe not if you have a few drinks first, but true experience of the food was below par.

A quick shout-out to my favorite Italian restaurant! Although I haven't visited in person lately,…read moreI still order delivery through Grubhub. My go-to dishes are the Spaghetti Cacio e Pepe and the Bruschetta Avocado. The Cacio e Pepe may literally mean "spaghetti with cheese and pepper," but it's so much more than that. The pasta is perfectly coated in a silky, savory sauce made from Pecorino Romano and freshly cracked black pepper--simple ingredients that come together into something incredibly rich, comforting, and flavorful. The Bruschetta Avocado is another favorite and pairs beautifully with the pasta. I highly recommend both. And I'm sure Sara, the owner and operator, is still as chill and wonderful as ever.

He allowed me to watch him do his magic during his set. It's a skill I've longed to learn as part of many on the good ol bucket list. What comes to mind when thinking about this venue is comparable to a person inherently born with a lot of charisma. Prices are fair, especially for the area. But the drinks are where it really stands out. They're clearly made with fresh, high quality ingredients.

Came in after having dinner nearby and wanting to have a late-night cocktail. Drinks: Ordered the X Cadillac Margarita. It was just okay. Not bad, but also nothing special. Service: The bartender was friendly, but the service was somewhat spotty. Environment: I will say that the place was pretty crowded, and everyone was having a lot of fun. There's a small dance floor in the back. Bottom Line: It's a fun place that straddles the line between dive bar and local hotspot.

Energy goes way up with it though. Music is consistently great and the crowd matches it. Mostly a younger, high-energy vibe. If you actually want to enjoy your drinks and maybe chat with the bartenders, show up early. Once it gets going, it's all motion and noise. It's never disappointed us. You kind of know what you're signing up for, and it delivers every time. Ambiance leans classy without feeling vintage. Dim lighting, a touch of rustic, and just enough polish to set the tone without overdoing it. They've got a patio too, which comes in clutch when you need a breather or want to actually hear the person next to you. We usually do street parking and it's not too bad if you're willing to walk a bit.

The menu has a decent selection of wine at reasonable price and grossly overpriced snacks. Service is always friendly, but not very attentive.

I recommend ordering everything you might want right away & ask for the check immediately. Even if you order wine, you do not get water with it. If you want water, the only option is buying a bottle.

It was pretty quiet, yet we were barely greeted by the staff. To make matters worse, another patron was changing their 2-year-old's diaper right there on the patio. It was completely "butt baked" and extremely unappetizing while trying to eat. Food we ordered : * Pâté Sandwich: The pâté itself was actually good, but it was ruined by a ton of mustard. I had to scrape it off just to eat it as the mustard completely overpowered the sandwich. * Salmon Sandwich: Very bland and lacked flavor. Side sales were bland. We had to ask for extra dressing. * Iced Coffee: There was something "weird" floating in my coffee. Between the hygiene issues on the patio, and the mediocre food, I won't be back. Maybe I should have just stuck with wine and cheese.
