    A little hidden gem , with great decor, and awesome vibe! Food was great and the value - fantastic! Options to save money if you pay by cash so we paid by cash. We tried new dishes and kept a few staples. Best dish was the muscles with garlic sauce and excellent bread! Would have liked to try the Red Fish, but was out at the time. Thank you!

    Relaxed atmosphere, which I personally love. The staff just took it a step further than I’d like. From sit down to ordering my entree I waited 20-25 minutes for a mostly empty restaurant/bar. No check back on how the food tasted, which I would’ve appreciated as my appetizer was undercooked and over salted. My entree was incredibly bland. Seems like a great spot to go in the summer for sipping cocktails poolside. The bartender makes an incredible French 75

    This was definitely an experience, but overall, it felt a bit lackluster. The Queens, for the most part, didn’t bring the energy I was hoping for. There were one or two who were truly committed and entertaining, but the rest felt underwhelming—almost expecting the cash tips regardless. It seemed like there was potential for something more special and engaging, but it just didn’t quite deliver. The food was average. The venue is very pretty and in a very cute neighborhood.
