    Staff was top notch from the hosts who were able to get merge some tables for my large party to the wait stuff who accommodate seven hangry kids and an egg allergy. Burgers, chicken sandies and apps were as good as the original Loop location.

    Birthday/Christmas Eve celebration. Place was cute and a bit confusing to find at first (it was night time and at a gold course). I’ll have to go during the day to enjoy the views. Place was decorated for the holidays and one of the few spots that I was able to get a last minute rsvp after another restaurant cancelled our rsvp because of a system error. Service and server were great, food choices were not as many as I would’ve desired but we managed to find our picks. Overall nice place. Like I said, I’ll have to check the place out during daylight hours.
