I don’t know the salaries of the bartender and the main waitress who work on Thursday evenings, but they both deserve a raise because they are absolute gems. Go for the drinks, and stay for the reggae covers and conversations about niche shows.

    Celebrated My Birthday Here Lastnight EVERYTHING Was A 10/10! Service, Food, Atmosphere, Hookah,Music It All Was Top Notch. Greeted On The Walk In, Lead To The Bar Until The Other Guest Dining with Us Arrived. We Were Able To Enjoy Some DELICIOUS Lychee Martinis & Appetizer for Happy Hour. The Bartender Was Extremely Pleasant,Fast & Attentive. Will Definitely Be Back.
