Both drinks are fantastic, depending on your mood. They offer some snacks for purchase, but one of the best parts is that you're welcome to bring your own food, making it a great place to hang out without feeling limited. It's the perfect place to meet up with friends, catch a live performance, enjoy trivia night, or check out one of their many other events. Their website has an updated list of what's coming up, which makes planning easy. Adding to the ambience, you'll find a few tables that are actually chalk board tables so you can draw or play games on the chalkboard tables if you want. It's so fun! The staff has always been kind, welcoming, and great at crafting drinks. Take Flight Spirits is definitely one of my favorite local spots!

The place is very popular and it's evident by the number of people coming here for lunch and dinner. So overall, it's a 4 stars because I'm dope and I round down :) You really can't go wrong here for lunch, I've come here three times at noon and it got busy, and I do see the dinner crowd when I'm driving by and it's also pretty lively. They have a variety of burgers with assorted toppings but I will have to say that their desserts are incredible - the sticky cake and chocolate cake are both top notch. You can also swap out your fries for a wonderful salad in order to eat healthier. Do not miss the chicken breast nuggets with maple syrup - That!!

There was a funky smell at first (the wood, the alley?) but we eventually just got used to it. I would suggest something to battle the smell. The waitress mentioned the specials for the night and when she said Short Rib, I was sold. It was delicious. Only sad thing is that the average person will probably never take leftovers home. The portion, as pricey as it is, is just right for one person. The margarita I had was good and the Tres Leches dessert was a perfect ending.

The margarita was tasty and came in a cute jar, definitely picture worthy. I had the potatoes as starters, they were good but the spice was there. I was able to save half. The portion sizes are decently big. I really enjoyed the chicken flautas. The chicken was seasoned well and juicy. The green sauce on top was also my favorite part of the flautas.

We ordered the shrimp tacos, truffle parmesan fries, and the vodka pasta. The shrimp tacos were definitely the star for me -- super flavorful, fresh, and had a nice little kick without being too much. The truffle fries were also really good and easy to share, especially with the extra aioli on the side. The vodka pasta was creamy, comforting, and just one of those solid dishes if you want something filling and reliable. Everything came out looking really nice, portions were decent, and the whole meal felt like a cute little dinner moment. The ambiance definitely adds to the experience here too -- it's one of those places people come to for the vibe, but the food still holds up. Overall, I'd come back especially for the tacos and fries. Cute trendy spot for dinner if you want good food and a fun atmosphere.

We've often walked past this place and thought it looked cute and yesterday we decided to finally…read morego to it. What a mistake. I'm going to first say that I think they might have something wrong with their back of the house. I say this because yes the service was not great. The waiter seemed to really not be trained properly as far as when to stop by the table and what to ask and prolonged our supposedly quick lunch by way too long because he was so distracted by other things. But the back of the house thing, there were four of us. We ordered five things and only one of the dishes was normal. The Burger. Quite good. Everything else felt soggy and undercooked. I don't know why this is. But one of the things we got was a pizza and the pizza was so wet and soggy that we couldn't even pick up the slices. Didn't eat any of it, just sent it back and the funny part is is 10 feet away from us there was literally another table with a similar pizza that they did the exact same thing but they didn't send it back. Theirs was just left on the table uneaten as they walked out. The menu isn't interesting enough to make us ever want to go back and to top it off there's a 18% service charge put on there that is the tip for the server but doesn't say gratuity and we asked about that and it turns out it's the gratuity that's already included in every bill. This place is a mess. Maybe this isn't represent other locations but this location is a dumpster fire.
