    Jekyll is absolutely one of our favorite places to go to whether it’s for a date night with just the boyfriend and I or going out with a group of friends. Every drink we have had is absolutely been amazing as well as the wait staff also !!! we also recently learned that you can order food next-door from Ro and have it sent right over and let me just say the food was amazing as well. If you want something sweet, then I would recommend their crème brûlée. It’s probably the best I’ve ever had. So if you have ever thought about going to this little hidden speakeasy, what are you waiting for ?? Just go and you’ll fall in love yourself.
