Overall, it’s a 5-star review from me. The ambience and atmosphere is inviting and relaxing. The music wasn’t too loud, just right. It has a spacious vibe to it, considering it’s not too huge of a bar. The food was amazing. The flatbread pizzas were really good, and fresh. Almost everyone who worked there was genuinely friendly and helpful. The 3-star service was based on the female server my friends and I had. I don’t know if she was new, especially in the bar business. I don’t know if they train their servers with proper customer service and interaction with patrons. She started out nice, but I don’t think she had the real patience of a great server. (Side note: I ordered a MADRAS, which is Bartending 101 if someone trained to be a bartender. None of the bartenders knew what it was, and had to google it. I think aspiring bartenders really should go to some training.) My friends and I went specifically on a Monday for Trivia, and “Gay Gaston” was a great trivia host. To put icing on the cake, our group WON! Despite all of the shortcomings that occurred, we still loved the place, and we look forward to returning. I just hope they’ll really retrain their servers and bartenders, so they know the basic idea of customer service, patience, and simple information on traditional signature drinks like Madras, Cuba Libre, etc.

Went in everyone is watching Drag race on tv, $18 for a Jameson and coke. Not even a full shot. Never going back.
