The band started an hour late & the mgr sent my server TWICE to ask me to vacate the table when I went there to enjoy the music. I ordered chicken wings & instead of wing drumsticks they served chicken legs. The music was good & the server was good so it wasn't a completely negative experience.

I always enjoy the beehive. The energy and entertainment make it a special place. I had one appetizer and one main dinner - the appetizer was a rice flour tempura artichoke. it was served with lemon and a delicious aioli. The main course was the swordfish puttanesca which worked very well. Music the night we went (1/1/25) was excellent but not so loud that we couldn't talk. All in all a great time!

We wanted to just have drinks however our server continued to bother us saying it was required to order food when we did not know this. We were rushed out of the restaurant.

The food is average and over priced and then they automatically add on a 22% tip plus an entertainment fee plus all the tax. I felt hosed.
