    Come for the whiskies, stay for the cocktails. But eat somewhere else.

    The food was good, the selection of drinks is good, the seating is awful! Hard seats and mostly bar style seating don't match the quality of the food or drink.

    Old fashioned not do good- no muddled orange- western civilization is on the decline- but solid bourbon selection

    Meh. Go for the whiskey, not the food. I enjoyed the pork rinds but the food is pretty sub par

    Careful. The up-sell from the owner and staff can be dangerous.

    Oysters were BOMB- chairs uncomfortable so don't expect to sit for a while... Waitress was nice at first but got rude when we were paying. Mixed feelings on this place.
