| - Food - 6/10
Service 7/10
Atmosphere 9/10
We came here on a Saturday night at around 9pm and when we asked the hostess for a table, we were told that the eating portion of the night was over and that only bar seats were available. This was fine as we came primarily for drinks, however when we spoke with the bartender, he told us that this was false and handed us menus to order food. The bartenders were very attentive and made sure we got everything we needed, checking in periodically to make sure we were okay. This made up for the cold reception we received from the hostesses.
The food selection was unimpressive and the food itself was mediocre. I had the stuffed chicken wings and the beet risotto which sounded great in concept, but somewhere along the line something went wrong and the product in front of me was barely enjoyable and left me with a feeling of regret. The chicken wings were good, but the risotto on the other hand, tasted like it was made from cheap quality ingredients. I felt like there was an element missing from the dish.
The drinks, however were made very well and were priced even better. It only cost $6 for a vodka cranberry with premium vodka (grey goose), which is practically unheard of on King west. I really enjoyed the club portion of the night, the atmosphere was lively and the DJ played great music. Although, at one point the music was a little geriatric, but that's expected considering the crowd.
