    Server was a bit impersonal. Celebrated a 40th birthday and there was no acknowledgement. Had to remind the staff and they offered a candle on whoever we ordered. Definitely not a celebratory restaurant, but a solid average spot for an uneventful night. Disappointing but may be back if I need a spot that’s not too expensive.

    Valentine’s Day 2025: Pros: - Very nice ambience in the main dining room. Cons: - 15-20 minute wait by the door (after reservation time) - drink at the bar not offered - upon arrival. Several other couples also waiting. - Very average food for the price point. Of 7 dishes, nothing stood out. - Inattentive, non-engaging service. Order taken down wrong. - Tried sticking us in the corner of a basement room that lacked the ambience of the main dining room. Seemed like an overflow room that just shouldn’t exist because it compromises on the experience. Despite the longer list of cons, this place isn’t bad. We just found it to be incredibly mid for what we ended up paying. If you’re looking for a nice ambience that feels like a nice restaurant, this is a nice spot spot. The food isn’t anything to write home about though, and the service was definitely lacking. Perhaps the restaurant just over packed Valentine’s Day to capitalize on the holiday and just didn’t have the floor or kitchen staff to handle.

    I really can’t remember a better dining experience. It’s been a while. The food and staff were amazing, beautiful decor and it wasn’t loud- I could hear my friends! Just lovely.

    Lo, our Server, was very personable and such a pleasure to interact with... she took great care of us! The Bartender has to be one of the best in the City, with some of the most well-balanced Brunch drinks I have had... the LP Spritz was delish! Thank you for a great Brunch!!!

    Just an odd experience, service was unpleasant, they sat us next to a huge table in a nearly empty restaurant, we moved and the service just wasn't that great and the food was worse and overpriced. Not a place I'd go back to.

    I’ve been many times but this was a first for brunch. Brunch menu is fabulous. Just as good as dinner, along with great service etc. It was nice and quiet when we got there versus how loud it can be at night. It livened up but still seemed more manageable. Charging for still water (didn’t offer tap, and didn’t think to ask) for $2 is silly. Highly recommend.

    Service is excellent, food is absolutely delicious— varied menu; four in our party and everyone found something that delighted them. We had a wonderful time and never felt rushed despite it being a busy brunch time.
