- Jeremy CFebruary 4, 2016Don't look past the corn fritters as they are super tasty. And great spot to chill at the (small) first floor bar with your date early in the week.
- New/Improved roof deck is way too packed on the weekends; but perfect for a drink, on weekdays. For food, can't beat the chicken and waffles. REALLY wish they still had the lamb chops though..

- AbJuly 5, 2015There are great nights here and good nights here. Solid cocktails, but their beer selection is interesting enough to keep to hops
- carla elaineJuly 7, 2013Cute rooftop place that could benefit from getting a better sound system. Bartenders move at sloth's pace. Pretty diverse mid twenties & up crowd.
- Roxy K.June 30, 2017Good rooftop bar, however the bartender didn't know what Aperol Spritz is, which seemed strange to me

- Thomas EdwardsFebruary 2, 2012The upstair rooftop has 2 bars & great open space. The lighting could be a little better, which makes approaching not the easiest. But enough opportunities lie. For more details, visit our tour page. Read more

- Joanie O'SullivanJanuary 16, 2014The rooftop bar is cute and has tons of heatlamps so it's still a nice rooftop option in the winter

- Adam SegerSeptember 22, 2011Ask Barman Rob Pierangeli to do some magic with a hum cocktail. He has won a number of Cocktail Competitions. You are in good hands.
- ShallymalJuly 8, 2012Shrimp and grits were good (not yet great). Not good if you don't like your food looking at you while you eat it. Next time chicken and waffles.
- Jessica PlacenciaJanuary 5, 2015sick rooftop always open, good drinks, dark rooms and good music in Saturdays

- NOM NOM BorisApril 13, 2012You haven't lived if you haven't tried Country Fried Chicken & Waffle. Super nomnom! More tips & pics @ nomnomboris.com
- They lose cool points because they included gratuity on the dinner check for my party of 2.
- Alex OrrMarch 11, 2013Over-rated. Chix & waffles good, but it's just fried chicken & a waffle, for $18! Mussels were weak: small, stringy, undercooked. Fries were a bit soggy. Fried oysters were really good.
- LaWanda WhiteApril 20, 2011I like this place, filled with young-middle aged professionals and a great place to grab a drink after work.
