   The only option of a real meal was a burger and asked for beef and I was served the beef and lamp and the server lied and said it was beef and was horrible. I asked for a Bullet Bourbon Old Fashioned and I was criticized from the server with pink hair for asking requesting “Bullet Bourbon”. With only the four of us in the entire restaurant, it still took an hour for three burgers and a rice bowl to come out. I highly do not recommended this place.

   We arrived about 10min before our reservation on Mother’s Day. There were several open tables inside and several open tables outside. My parents are older and have a hard time hearing and it was already VERY loud inside so I asked if there was any chance we could get a table outside. She said “no we’re fully booked”. OK, no problem, I get it but I watched two tables outside that I could see stay empty until about 45min into our meal and then one four-top was taken by 2 people and another stayed empty until we paid our bill. The table we were at was directly under the AC vent and freezing for my poor mother. They were out of salmon cakes, at 10:45 for Mother’s Day which seems like really poor planning and a bummer because I knew that’s what my mom would want to order. The food we did order was ok but nothing special. The service was acceptable but the server seemed uninterested in us. My mom’s drink sat at the bar for about 10 min while he was at the other end of the restaurant. He set our food down and immediately turned around without asking us if we needed anything, I had to tap him on the shoulder to get a refill (I was mortified to do it! It seemed so rude but he was NOT paying attention and was refusing to check on our table). Overall a let down for Mother’s Day and I’m embarrassed that I suggested it for my mom. I won’t go back for anything like this but our server still got 20%.

   Appetizer came out with dinner. Service seemed took a long time to get to our table and by the time the server did all food for a happy hour menu was gone

   Had reservations and was seated appropriately. Waited a few minutes before we were served waters. We ordered our food, but then my wife wanted a certain drink, and the waiter went to ask the bartender, but took a while to finally tell us that the order was on its way. I ordered my burger medium rare, and after waiting 30 minutes for our food, my burger was well done. Half way through our meal, waiter came back after a long while, and my wife wanted another drink. It took about a good 15 minutes and our meal is finished before I had to ask about my wife's drink. We've been here before on a busier day, and we had better service than this. It wasn't that busy, and for service to be this slow and neglectful, my wife and I don't think we'll be returning.

   We went twice during our visit and look forward to going back! Johnathan provided amazing service and the food and drinks were great. We really enjoyed the deep fried Oyster Mushrooms with curry and basil aioli and the Dawn Burrito (tofu breakfast burrito) were highlights for us as vegetarians but our non-veg friends really liked the Steak burrito. The Espresso martini was one of the best I've had. Don’t sleep on this place :)

   We enjoy coming here after/before a show at Music Circus. Our server this time was Jonathan, he did a great job with recommendations and checking on us during our visit. Excellent Happy Hour menu and prices.

   Dinner prior to a Music Circus show was very hectic. We planned to eat 1.5 hours prior to the show & we were racing to get to our seats on time. The food was great and worth the wait…but the kitchen is so small the food comes out slowly. Will go back when we won’t feel rushed.

   Food was very good. Had Irish stew with cornbread. Our server was attentive. We had reservations and asked to be moved to table away from front door as it was cold and they accommodated us. Also good about getting us out on time for theater.

   3 of us ordered the monte cristo. It was a sandwich made with bread that I think was meant to be French toast, ham, cheese and over hard eggs. It may be their take on a deconstructed monte cristo, but I give it a D for taste. Server was awesome and so was my mimosa. Probably won’t come back for brunch.

    We love the food here and come often before Broadway shows. Our reservation was at 545 and online and the menu indicated happy hour was until 6. When our waitress came to our table she said it ends at 5 on show days. Why not update the menu? Or why not have happy hour until 6? The drinks were slow to come out, and then when I ordered she returned to say the mushrooms were out. (This has happened before) and then took forever getting back to take my new order. For two burgers we were there an hour and a half. And no show discount. The food is always great but the overall experience and service seems to be consistently lacking.
