    Was really excited to finally come here but it was a let down. Food was good, but not spectacular. $70 for crabcake, soup, and two beers. Maybe just go for happy hour...

    This is the Red Lobster for rich bankers that don't know where to spend their lunch hour. Mediocre cocktails and our order was misplaced. The food was miles away from the prices. Not coming back here.

    No veg options at all! I understand its a seafood restaurant but I was accompanying my bf & would also like to have something to eat. Even the salads have meat! Waiter suggested I get a few sidedishes

    Hate to say it but the food was pretty bad and the service was worse. Should have know when we had no problem getting a day-of reservation.
