Food: 8.5/10 (note: based on one food item so take with a grain of salt!)

Overall experience: 6/10
Popped over to this place this past weekend with high hopes. The glowing tiger(?) in the alleyway that leads you to the entrance is very hipster and makes you feel like you're a part of a secret club.
There were a lot of things that contributed to an overall unpleasant experience, some of which were in their control and some not:
- large cold draft where I was seated at the bar
- large, rambunctious crowd beside me that edged so close they managed to spill beer on my coat
- staff member gave me a point blank "no" and then an even blanker stare afterward when I asked if they could make a special cocktail. No worries if not - but it was literally "no" and then silence...
- same staff member was seen on his phone at multiple times of the night (you can swipe right after your shift bro)
The cocktails were fine/normal. We had an order of the fried chicken which was really really good. Another person came to take care of us who was a lot nicer. But unfortunately, the experience had already been soured. Neither of these two elements were able to make up for it.
THE BOTTOM LINE: fried chicken is really good, everything else Iggy Azalea would most definitely pass on.
