    The real value here is a very pleasant and quiet setting for a business lunch, and fantastic view! Menu is simple with good options for all dietary needs. Pricing a little high, though expected in a hotel bistro.

    Stumbled upon Co-Sign Speakeasy after doing an escape room on on the lower level. It was a pleasant and fun surprise of a stop in our evening. The experience all the way up to enter the speakeasy was a pretty cool experience in itself. The atmosphere was exactly what you'd hope for in a speakeasy- relaxed & elegant. Our bartender, Brian, made the experience even better with his upbeat personality all while concocting some phenomenal cocktails . Looking forward to getting back there again soon!

    If you are looking for a true hug this is your spot. What a surprise as you walk into the gorgeous bar and then to the back of the restaurant where you are transported to a lodge, cabin, a time travel where pubs began? The immense drink menu had us gobsmacked at the banana old fashioned and festive cocktails, but vinos on tap? Pierogis were legit homemade and the bison meatloaf was a chef kiss and the hug you need on a cold night. Dessert was a true treat and the French press was smooth and delicious.

    To be honest. It was the only place that I could get a reservation for six in at the last minute. They did accommodate us well. When I did arrive, the place does have an old musty smell. It was virtually empty with only a few tables seated on a Saturday night at 7 PM. The waiter that took our order was a tentative. Our chef was very good as well. Unfortunately, I left there, and I was still hungry after getting the imperial twin New York strip steaks. in a pinch again, I surely would go. But it would not be my first choice.
