    First off, we were running 20 minutes behind for our 8pm Saturday reservation. About 7:50, when it was clear our dinner was progressing far too slowly, I messaged the bar through this app. They responded and were AOK with our running late. We really appreciated their flexibility, especially on a Saturday night. Anyhow, on to the drinks and small bites that were part of the “playlist” experience. 4 creative and well executed cocktails perfectly paired. They accommodated our pescatarianism and a nut allergy no questions asked. Small space and they seem to pretty much operate on a reservation only basis. Cool Unisonian interior decor. Great music (a mix of the Roots, OutKast, and some 70s disco). Staff was awesome. Each was friendly and professional and good at what they do. We’ll be back.

    Absolutely loved my experience at Dirty Habit Glass House! The food was excellent, the ambiance was stunning, and the service was top-notch. The whole place is beautifully designed and has such a cute, inviting vibe. The only minor downside is that the bathroom is on the 3rd floor, but it’s a small inconvenience for such a fantastic spot. Overall, I had an amazing time and will definitely be back!

    Visited for the all you can eat brunch and welcomed by courteous staff in a beautiful setting. The value is amazing as plenty of food is provided! Next time I will be sure to state which items I do not need/want! Definitely will be back! Only con was a large table for birthday party that impacted the ambience and noise drastically.

    Attentive staff, and knowledgeable about my dietary requirements. Good timing. You don't have to wait too long for your food, but they are also not that speedy that you feel rushed. Delicious food (we had the Honey thyme spatchcock chicken, and, Yankee pot roast).
