Great atmosphere for a date night! The jazz band really set the mood. This is the perfect place for a romantic dinner before a stage play. They could use extra staff seating people as there was a lineup even if you had reservations.

I love Burdock, the beers are so great and the space itself wonderful. The service was really lackluster, a trend I'm seeing throughout the city these days unfortunately (but maybe understandably) - no enthusiasm, not consistent, not checking in if the food is good or if we have everything, a general "oh yeah you're still here" vibe. Not something I've experienced at Burdock before and was really excited to show my friend from out of town. Overall a fine, just fine, experience.
