| - I liked the food here, flavor and portion wise. We ordered about half of the appetizers on the menu and we ended up with a full to-go box leftover after four of us dined. The plates came out in odd order with weird gaps and honestly the presentation made it awkward because the servers couldn't get the various plates on or off the table. We also went through four rounds of drinks. The cocktails on special were cheap, but not very good. The pricier options were definitively better.
The two things I'm going to hate on here are the volume and the attitude of the server. The place was loud. Not like "the music was loud because I'm old" but I couldn't here anything there was so much different kind of noise going nonstop. There was music but I mostly couldn't make out what it was. There were people trying to have shouting conversations which was alternatively hilarious and awkward. And the server misheard everything everyone said several times, but somehow didn't get into the habit of moving closer to the person ordering. But that's not what bothered me about our server. It was that he didn't seem to want to help us. They were busy, but not busy enough for the attitude around talking about the menu, about allowing us to order more appetizers, about actually clearing plates when the table was too full to hold any more food (but we had ordered more food anyway), about getting additional rounds of drinks, or allowing me to give him my CC. If the hostess wasn't standing right next to us and being helpful to keep herself busy, I probably would have been pissed. So props to her for going above and beyond, helping to reign in our server, clear plates, and allowing me to pay.
I might be inclined to try this place for lunch sometime, but I'm going to pass on doing a weekend dinner.
