For a group of 12 just enjoying a night out on Las Olas this was a FUN spot. Hard working bartenders that did a great job taking care of us. Drink prices seemed reasonable and I thought the DJ music was a great mix. They do offer "Bottle & Table Service".. but out of our budget.. There's also an out patio bar overlooking Las Olas. This may not be the spot for everyone but it was a "Hidden Gem" for us.

Last night we came in with a group of 10 people for a bachelorette party. We walked into the bar waited 25 minutes for someone to even look at us. One of 3 bar tenders came up to us and asked if we were high. And we replied no, then we had to ask if we could then order a drink. He was irritated by us asking to get some drinks. I’ve worked in the restaurant/ bar industry for 4 years and I’ve never been more surprised by a place that’s hyped up that much before. DO NOT RECOMMEND very very judgmental staff. Not a good vibe either.

I went with a group. The server did work hard, however the food was awful. It is Mother's Day, so there was a fixed menu. The food was so slow coming out of the kitchen. It was super hot inside too. The deviled eggs weren't bad, the salad was warm and very small. I ordered Mt steak med rare, I sent 2 back because they were overcooked. They were tasteless and very thin. It took 45 minutes to get desert which was ok. It took a half hour to get a to go box. One person in my group never got her meal. Sadly it was a horrible experience and I will never go back.

MAKE SURE TO READ THIS BEFORE THINKING OF GOING HERE1. They don’t tell u it’s $250 minimum until u get there and sit down2. I had a party of 8 which was told it would be a $500 minimum which was fine and tried to charge us 250 more.3. You are supposed to get a bottle with a larger group (like we had) but we never got a bottle but they still tried to charge us for (the additional 250 in number 2)4. When I spoke to the manager he told me “pay your bill u must be broke by looking at what you have on” I posted a pic just so u all can see what u have on.5. Until they sorted out the ticket they had 3 security guards follow me to and from wherever I went and threatened to call the police which I not once tried to leave or not pay my bill6. A guy that works there told me “they always overcharge any groups they really just mad that you caught it”ITS BEAUTIFUL INSIDE BUT NOT LIKE TIKTOK OR ANY SOCIAL MEDIA SHOW AND I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE

they charge our card multiple times before we closed our tab racist manager accused us of being broke while multiple cards have pending charges don't waste your time or money

Very instagramable place and drinks are yummy

I should have read the reviews before my friends and I walked into this place. Their website hypes it up a lot more than what it actually looks like. When my friend made a reservation online it did not indicate anything about a minimum charge to sit down. Needless to say once the bill came we were made aware of a $250 minimum just to sit. This place should not be charging a minimum to sit, they should be happy people are walking in. We spoke with the manager and he could care less. We will be disputing this charge.

To start off , the bartender I came in contact with was very rude . She acted as if she didn’t see me and my friends sitting at the bar although we called her over multiple times , In addition the shift manger I’m assuming ( he has black hair & glasses ) approached me rudely and asked if I moved a chair to accommodate sitting at the bar , hence I did being that one of the employees informed it was ok to do so . After I informed him of that , he began shaking his head and rolling his eyes at me . very childish . What type of management catches an attitude because their customer moves a random chair that holds no purpose , or is being used or assigned to a table . We nicely got up and left , I’ll starve before I give my money to a restaurant / bar with rude employees .do better .

Tiktok hyped this place up for nothing. If you just want a place to take nice pictures then this is it, other than that this place is trash. Service is awful. Sunday brunch was dead….. and you would think this place was packed with how slow the service was. Will not recommend or go back !

Great atmosphere. The employees were very friendly.
