The cornbread was amazing. My date enjoyed her salmon. My orciette pasta was decent but undercooked. Way less than a good al dente. Drinks were good and not overpriced. Good live music and started right on time. Always fun to see a little burlesque too.

The experience was great. We enjoyed the food and the variety show. It was our first time at a place like this and we could have used a little guidance from the server but she was slammed and not super available. I'd definitely go back though!
