   The food here is really good. I stayed in the quarter for a few nights to celebrate my birthday. We went in without a resv but I suggest making one as the line got really long after we walked up. We waited for about 25 minutes before being seated at our table.  We had great service and great food. I’m local to the area so I was hesitant about it being too touristy but was pleasantly surprised at the food and drinks. The drinks were also strong and tasty.

   We had a reservation and were never served. The Hostess was rude they were only 2 waiters for the whole restaurant. My friend sat at the bar for 15 minutes to get a drink the 2 bartender never even acknowledged her. We saw this restaurant on TikTok and were excited to go but had a terrible experience and never even made it to a table. We went back the next day to give it another chance. Tried to sit at the bar and the hostess told us we needed a reservation to sit at the bar. Never heard of that before fore. DO NOT GO HERE!!!!!

   Food was fabulous! We got oysters Rockefeller for the table and were the best I’ve ever had. I got the crab cake for my entree and it was also delicious. This was during Taylor Swift weekend so they were SLAMMED. We barely saw our waiter and had to wait a long time for our food but it was so worth it.

   Good food but poor service. Four of us — three of four entrees came out and the fourth entree arrived 15 minutes later. Asked to see a manager and request was ignored. Won’t go back.

   Food is overpriced. Service is slow, forgetful and distracted.

   Just average food. Very salty. And given the lack of customers the food took forever I prob won’t return or recommend anyone to come here if they like salt laden food

    Took over an hour to get our food and it came out cold. The waitress was overwhelmed. A bit overpriced for the portions. We went on a week night.
