The very first time we tried to dine here, the hostess gave us a weird vibe and when we told her we were a party of 2 she told us it would be a 45min wait since we didn’t have a reservation. My husband asked again and the hostess told us they were only seating “large parties”. we waited a couple minutes we decided to go somewhere else & let them know nevermind.
As we were leaving, another party of 2 walked in with no reservation (they were asked as well) & were seated at a table. Which we thought was strange.
Last night, we gave it a try again. I made reservations this time to avoid any possible issues. We arrived for our 7:15 reservation. Same hostess, same weird vibe as the first
Time. Not sure if it’s the way we were dressed (casual jeans and sweaters, the way we look or what. )
We were told it would be about 10min for the party that was at our table to finish up. No problem.
Another party came in after us and were seated right away in the main dining area.
When we got seated, we were sat at a table in a back room away from the main restaurant with a large party in there. This was strange to us because we were told a party was leaving but nobody had left in the time we got seated. This back room had a party of 14 seated there and this is where things went south. That party was so loud it was migraine inducing, we couldn’t even hear ourselves talk causing us to sit and struggle to have a conversation and enjoy our dinner. It’s hard to believe this was not done intentionally given other tables being open in the main restaurant and another party being seated before us who arrived after us.
The poor waitress did her best managing such a large party and ours but inevitably service fell short. No fault of her own.
The food was delicious and we enjoyed it. I may possibly give it another try, unsure at the moment. I really don’t want to think the vibe and horrible spot we got sat has anything to do with what we look like but that is what it seems like. Especially with me not being the only one in our party with that suspicion.
We were seated right away by super friendly hostess. Jordan was our waitress and we couldn’t ask for better service.
We will definitely by back
It was cool seeing in the kitchen thru the glass including the chef, but also saw service staff standing around and some on their phone.
Atmosphere was nice, place looked new and cool. I heard it used to be a different restaurant but at the time it was new when we visited in Dec 2023.
Portions were large although the beet salad I got was fairly small compared to meat containing meals. I forgot to take photos of food, sorry.
