This place gets packed around 12am. Me and some friends got there around 10:30 but there were maybe 60 people but by 12am there were over 200. Friday it's a reggae night. After the live band finished, the DJ came on. Drinks are pricey though, I had a rum and coke and a bottled beer $20.00. Just a little FYI before you go so you can plan your spending. Overall I had a good time and everyone was friendly.

I always loved coming here when they were fully open for a glass of rose after work and some awesome music! Now that they are doing takeout I’ve had it twice and both times it has been AMAZING! My boyfriend and I tried the veal blanquette last time and loved it. This time we went for the calamari and the half Cornish hen and again we were blown away! You can’t find better food for the portion and the price and the FLAVOR!! Highly recommend to all for a delicious meal without all the clean up from cooking yourself :)

Great atmosphere. Very cozy and neighborly spot to hangout. Outside seating was nice. I had the margarita, it was ok. The chefs special was pork chop (thick) with a broccoli gnocchi mix with bang bang sauce. Band was amazing. DJ played on the inside too.

If you are looking for a good time, this place is a must! Live music or a popping DJ, dancing is a must. The vibe is turned up and payed back all at the same time. The crowd is very mixed ethnically and generationally. Wear what you want and dance the night away while sipping on reasonably priced libations . @iamnikiology

Pretty good. Ambiance is wonderful. The burger was amazing... according to my husband. The veggie platter was ok. We waited for comedy that started 90 min late. But the drinks were greats, and the service was quick and attentive.
