Went here last night, extremely good bartenders. They really know how to make a drink with style and super cool. The games with classics like pinball games and group games with up to 10 people on one single game. Overall a good cool bar with a great atmosphere.

My wife and I stopped in for a pre dinner drink on a Saturday evening. While it is a great venue, the service was slow, inefficient and not really nice. We got a bottle of wine that was $36 on the menu but when I went to pay my check said $51. When we brought it to the bartender’s attention he said a manager would need to deal with it. 15 minutes later the manager showed up and spent another 5 minutes tapping on the POS system. Finally he decided he didn’t know how to solve the issue. I suggested he void my Amex charge and redo it. Apparently he didn’t know how to do this. Finally after 25 minutes I suggested he just void the transaction since we were now 10 minutes late for our dinner reservation next door. We will see if it show up on my Amex bill. Since we really want this to be a go to spot, we will give it another try next weekend.
