The wife and I tried to get in Saturday evening around 11:00 PM but the wait was 45 minutes so I picked up my membership card and went home. Not a negative experience. We were just tired and decided to try again later. We live about 200 paces from the front door so no big deal.
We tried again early Sunday evening and got right in. Although they give you a membership card what you really need to get in is your driver's license. My wife didn't have hers but they let us in but told us to make sure and have proper ID next time. Once the doorman lets you in you walk down a long hallway to the hostess. She escorts you through another door and seats you. The décor is beautiful. No TVs which is nice. Noise level was low but not many people were there. We sat at a table near the exit. Waitress was immediately there to take our order. My wife ordered a Thai Basil Smash and I ordered a Manhattan. We had already had dinner but wanted to try a food item on the menu so we ordered the GIARDINIERE. As we received our appetizer the waitress brought us a gin amuse-bouche (on the house appetizer) drink. It was a little sweet but enjoyable. The appetizer was really good. It included some warm almonds, olives, and pickled vegetables. You could tell by the quality of the vegetables that an experienced chef is in the kitchen. It tasted very fresh and tangy. We enjoyed the cocktails as well.
Their House Rules are posted on their website and the 3rd rule is proper dress is required but doesn't go into detail. It says to refer to rule 2 which says don't be a jerk. I discussed the dress code with the waitress and she told me its business casual. No t-shirts, shorts or flip flops. Apparently the no flip-flop rules is for men only (sexist?). However, I noticed the guy sitting two tables over was wearing shorts and flip flops. Obviously, they aren't enforcing that rule yet.
Overall it was a pleasant experience and it met my expectations. It is definitely a pricey experience so be prepared to spend some money. I will visit occasionally as it is a little expensive for my entertainment budget.
