Second time at this restaurant with a friend who likes it. The first time, I didn’t like anything about it: our table, the service or the food so I was hesitant to go again. We requested a nice table so they seated us in the enclosed glass seating area which was much more pleasant and the food was good and they didn’t rush us.

Sugar Bar is a vibe!! I drove from Baltimore to visit. The hospitality, food, ambiance and bartender Terrell all top notch. Thursdays entertainment is worth the drive. One thing we did have a comment on is the cover charge for the upstairs. You watch the entertainment on a tv. We got paying the cover charge for the main room. My thoughts were the cover charge is for the host possibly. Either way, it is so worth visiting!!! We had an amazing time.
