The service was a little disorganized, but we also came on a Thursday evening so they may have been short-staffed. Cash only, but there is an ATM. Average price and average food.

(We live outta state)) Good: close to uni of Chicago -Bad: cash only --Bad: service is terrible ---Bad: treatment is borderline agism ----Bad: bartender very rude female from second we walked in, looking us up and down as if she is the fashion police and when asked if there's an ATM she pointed to the "cash only" sign at back!!! ------Bad: being talked to like we are in our 20s or children -----Worse: 2/4 not served by the blond older lady bartender, stating 2/4 were already drunk due to red eyes and looking drunk ---- all that was NOT true at all. --------Worst: being told no drinks or food would be given to us, she cut us off after just one beer! I've never been cut off or told by a bartender when they think wine can drink. We are business professionals not college student or novice to a drinking establishment. Chicago really let us down!

A man got cussed out by a woman because he voiced his opinion about politics, which showed how ignorant she was. I ordered a drink at the bar and noticed a huge pan of wings sitting there and many people eating them. I guess it wasn't offered to me because I was a newcomer. The drinks are expensive. I didn't feel very safe in the establishment. The barmaid did not make me feel comfortable and I'm sure she realized I was a newbie. If I should ever return she'll remember the one who doesn't tip!

VERY different environment on a Friday night than what I remember. The men were my age and younger, which to me was normal since they've always catered to a mature crowd. The women were MUCH younger though. The music was good, being a mixture of old school hip hop, r&b, house, and reggae, and the drinks are still on point. I probably won't be back because this crowd was a little too young for me, but I recommend it to Gen Z and beyond.

I recently visited this spot with my besties and we had an incredible time. Good conversations and plenty of sexy grown men iCandy. The bartenders were not up to my speed, but somehow they managed to get my drink right -double shots of Hennessy neat. I guess you can't mess that up. LOL The DJ was playing old school R&B and some hip-hop and rap tracks with a little of house music that my girlfriend requested. The vibe and atmosphere was decent and everyone was truly enjoying themselves. My only complaint is that the bartenders do less talking and more servicing of drinks. Other than that, this is a nice spot to kick back and party.

It was an older crowd which wasn't bad either. I'm thinking of making this a regular hang out spot.
