Reviews

Went here for dinner - food and cocktails were fantastic! The baked goat cheese was to die for. Cocktails were fun and unique. Service was very friendly. My atmosphere “ding” was because of the added 20% fee (to all bills) as a “service charge for all employees”. They were transparent about it when they brought the bill, but it did leave a bad taste in my mouth because we felt obligated to tip our server on top of it. Just raise your prices if you need to pay your people more. A mandatory 20% charge with the suggestion that you can tip your server more individually puts patrons in an uncomfortable spot.

My petite fillet was really good, and I didn’t have to cut off a lot of fat. Green beans were excellent, too. Food came fast and our server was friendly and fun.

Went with friend. Heard some great things. Didn’t realize the music was till later so we missed the music. Food was great. Didn’t love the vegan cauliflower otherwise all the other food we ordered was delicious and service is great. They do add a 20% tip automatically so keep that in mind as well. We got a goat cheese salad with a side of salmon, we were told that dish was better than the actual salmon. Friend got some sort of marrow (I don’t eat much meat) and I also got the mushroom pasta dish which was really yummy as well. Music there starts at 9 pm. Enjoy!

Unique and enjoyable place for an upscale bar food . Lots of elk and bison on the menu. My bison burger was delicious. Friends enjoyed the bison pastrami and Rubin. Wings and fries were solid. Great service
