    I always have the best time at Menagerie, the food is amazing and the entertainment is out of this world! The only thing that slightly let me down this time was the DJ, the music didn’t create a vibe where people got up and danced and the restaurant cleared quite early on because of that in my opinion. I would usually get up and dance in there but I just wasn’t feeling it because of the music sadly. But overall it was a lovely night!

    Disappointing Brunch Experience I rarely leave negative reviews, but this place earned it. The food was awful served cold and completely underwhelming. The “smashed” avocado tasted like mushy peas, and not in a good way. We ordered cocktails and were served mocktails .When we tried to clarify, the waitress (with pink hair) was incredibly rude and dismissive. Overall, it was a total waste of money. I won’t be coming back, and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone looking for a decent brunch.

    Wow…what a beautiful restaurant and we were so surprised to have lunch in the birdcage for my special 60th birthday. The lunch was delicious and my deaf friends really enjoyed it very much. Thank you so much
