“I got the Pesto Portobello, and it was just what you'd want; nothing fancy but tasty and the portobello was cooked just right.”

“I would recommend this place as an after work happy hour spot as well as late night get togethers.”

“Service is on point, food superb (the truffle fries are like crack and I love the upscale sports bar feel to it.”

  1. Went their for drinks and quick bites. Its a OK place. The Service was OK.Liked the wings and sliders.

  2. I thought I really liked this place.  We had a happy hour outing from work, so had the mezzanine space for it.  The bartender was very nice, and the food was pretty good (finger food, and some salami/ham/cheese, etc).  There were some booths and seats so you could also rest and eat if you wanted.

    Ambience on our spot and main floor were both pretty good.  Nice music but not too loud.  A lot of TVs if you wanna catch on some sporting events.  People at the bar looked very casual and comfortable drinking and talking to buddies.

    Would definitely consider this place for after dinner drink next time I hang out with my buddies.

  3. Some of the best bar food I've had! We ordered the truffle fries and calamari to snack on while we drank, and both were fresh, crispy, and flavorful. We were pleasantly surprised, considering a lot of bar food is standard and mediocre.

    We came here after being smushed in the Refinery Rooftop. This was much more our speed: open, spacious, not overly loud, ample amount of seating. Maybe I'm just getting old 🙂

    The drinks were also very good! I had their version of a Moscow Mule, and it came in a proper copper mug (some places don't serve it in a copper mug, and it's always disappointing).

    I'd definitely come back if I'm in the area and need some drinks and snacks. Thanks again, Yelp, for steering me in the right direction!

  4. Yesssssss!!!! it was lit here! But it was really mad dim though! I came here to meet with an associate for business reasons and it was the perfect spot. I may have been here before, when they were under another name, but not quite sure. I like how the hostess called to remind me of my reservation. I like how they had the menu on display right outside of the restaurant. I like how the seating and bar area were room as ever! I love how the bathrooms were very neat, clean, spacious, and allowed for plenty of privacy. Overall, I liked this place. Simple food for a nice evening with great ambiance!

  5. For a midtown bar this one is actually ok.

    Good happy hour deals.

    DJ at night on weekends.

    Dancing allowed.

    Nice staff and attentive bartenders.

    Upstairs room overlooking main floor good for group parties.

    Big flat screens with the games on.

    Nice mix of people with a diverse crowd. Not too many meatheads when I was here. Saw some drunken hookups taking place.

    Sign up for mailing list to win a free happy hour party for you and your friends. Took advantage of that.

    It's a chill spot. Get your freak on!

  6. I was meeting a friend here and when we got here we got the surprised  that they were having a private party so they sent us upstairs.
    Upstairs it's a bit smaller but hey it is what it is. A waitress came by really quickly and asked us if we needed a table and sat us down.
    I wasn't really in the drinking mood so I had some wine and we ordered appetizers; grilled shrimp and guacamole.
    I was really shocked by how good the food was especially the shrimp was delicious and a pretty good portion for an appetizer.
    Our waitress kept checking on us from time to time which was nice since this place was pretty crowded.
    As we were leaving we went through the main floor since the private party had finished and I really liked this room. It was large, pretty much every game on the screens and a very lively atmosphere.

  7. Came to this location at first it was very empty but then inquired about why no one was inside. The hostess then said  it was because it was a large party that just left. My group sat down and the waitress was friendly and helpful. The food was not bad at all. In fact it was quite tasty and not as expensive as I had expected. Overall great experience here.

  8. Came here last summer and realized I miss reviewing this place.

    The food was okay-ordinary American restaurant menu. Service was good, even in busy time.

    Ambience was real nice-high ceiling, large hallway space. Especially there is a large TV hanging in this restaurant, makes it a perfect place to hangout with friends on big game night, such as Super Bowl or NBA All Star, etc.
