   Thought we were going to have a table with regular food menues but they sat us by the bar. with limited space and only serving bar food. Had a dinner scheduled with a client so was not ideal, we only had drinks with light appetizers but had to find another spot for a proper dinner. Didn't realize the place didn't serve regular menu.

   The open table app said there was one table remaining at 9.15pm. When we got there into a very noisy tavern/bar , they tried to sit us downstairs as no tables were available. After some firm words, we were shown to our table.. in an empty restaurant. The food was shocking - unedible and a very limited menu. To top the evening, a MOUSE decided to join us to give us company in this empty restaurant! We left pretty sharp - i told the waiter, but he didn't really look bothered. Basically it was a god awful place, we laughed about it because what else can you do?

    The Christmas vibe was amazing, and we loved the cocktails, but the food and service were disappointing. The steak was nearly inedible due to the fat and toughness of the meat, and no one ever came to check on us. When we needed a fresh cocktail, we had to flag down a random server.
