Tasty and beautiful cocktails that are worth their pricepoint. Wish there were more small bites options. Came when opened and was only 1 other table, but took a while for the server to come over to put down coasters, then come back later to give water, then come back to take a cocktail order. Would've preferred to get an order in sooner.

Cocktails were good, food was mediocre. The crab dip lacked seasoning except excessive char (not browning) on top. The warm cookie was like a big Toll House, which went nicely with their egg nog variation. But it was a nice atmosphere and was otherwise a nice experience.
