   Good food and very cool interior. Went around 9 PM on a Friday night and it was dead though. Maybe a little confused on the best time to come. The wait staff was on top of their game….maybe a little to on top of their game where it felt a little rushed? Overall, great place but not sure it would be something to rush back to.

   Inattentive service, plates weren’t removed until asked, felt chaotic. Food was fire though, I can see why this place has 3.5-4.0 stars. The food and ambiance are doing a lot of heavy lifting.

   LOVE THIS PLACE! Hosted my best friend's surprise party here and all the staff were extremely accommodating, the private room is beautiful and service 10/10!!! Sabrina was our server, she's amazing and we loved her recommendations and friendliness.

   Never felt more rushed for $500 meal. Food was mid. Kitchen timing was off. Portions not great.

   Outstanding decor (similar to Beatnik only without the vegetation) and nicely spaced tables. Food is decent and servers were great. I'm a bit surprised that this place isn't better known around town, but for the moment, it's a good alternative for large groups.

   I’m sad to say Bambola’s service was horrible. We had a reservation Saturday February the 15th for a birthday celebration from states away, but unfortunately our experience was very upsetting. Upon arrival the hostess was extremely rude, making faces and rolling her eyes, and definitely not welcoming, friendly, or even cordial. As a large group of servers and bartenders, we were very disappointed and shocked by the treatment we received. Not worth it for the attitude and treatment alone, let alone the prices.

   Not great, food was very salty. Service was good but seemed all over the place.

    The food just isn't good.. not sure who would want this type of fusion.
