    Great atmosphere and surroundings. Loved the upstairs bar and the open windows to the front alley. Service was surprisingly good for only the second day of operation. Cocktails were unique and tasty although some were very small despite being pricey. Food was terrific with unique and delicious combinations of tastes. Open kitchen created an energetic and bustling vibe.

    Dinner was great and we made it to our show at the Campbell Theater. Service was excellent, we felt taken cared of. The drinks and food were very good. I'd recommend sharing a baklava if you so choose because it is a big portion.

    It’s been a while since I’ve been to the Loft. I have also never been there for dinner, but we thought we would check it out. The dinner was great, especially the dessert! We decided to do the Prix Fixe menu and it was worth it. You got to choose a started, main course, and then dessert! After dinner, we decided to continue to hang out since there were DJs setting up. One for the bottom floor and one for the top floor. Great music the whole night! The vibe was amazing!!!! However, the best thing about the Loft, they had an awesome bartender….Taylor! He is the best and made some really great drinks that were on their menu!!!!
