Old fashion had a slice of orange instead of just the zest which makes the drink bitter. Since it's on the menu, unsure why the bartender is not trained to make it correctly. For those that drink "old fashion" the zest matters. Brought a cake out to celebrate a birthday, however it was hard, like a hockey puck. It was awful. We thought it was a joke at first because we could not cut it. Even the couple next to us said it was sad. The server saw us having a hard time with it, didn't offer to bring another. Good thing, I had a hidden Nothing bunt cake to surprise him with, once we arrived home. Always have a plan B!!!!

The food was good. I wouldn’t say the best I’ve ever had. My lemon drop was good. But mediocre. The server was really nice. There’s a hooka lounge next door and the music was loud. And there was a super loud table behind us. They were rude. The table was too close and they kept bumping our chair. It wasn’t a bad experience. I doubt I’ll return the food was over priced for the quality.

My son had food allergies, specifically shrimp and shellfish. He ordered the salmon which was garnished with shrimp. After returning the dish, the manager, responded and asked specifically what my son’s allergies were and explained how they would fix the issue. He was adamant that there would be no cross contamination in the next dish. Needless to say, he enjoyed his meal. We both did. We will definitely return. Thank you Thirteen!

The food was good. I paid $70 for 2 drinks. One shot of Don Julio Anejo and a double shot of the same. I think that’s a bit much for that however we enjoyed it. Will we return (perhaps)?

The staff and the service was excellent. The food was mediocre. Not everyone’s dishes was hot on delivery. We had a full party of 10 people and no one was satisfied with their meal. The staff and the service was excellent, but the food definitely could use some help.

First time to restaurant for anniversary. The place was pretty empty besides us and one other couple on a Wednesday evening. Food was tasty, not sure about the price being worth the serving. The menu has been changed from what we overheard and use to have better options than before. Was a nice setting and waiter was friendly.
