    The food, decor, the staff were wonderful. However, the noise level made it hard to hold a conversation.

    Terrible pre-theater experience. Arrived on time for a 6:15 dinner reservation and were seated at 6:30. Placed our entire order and drinks the first moment our server arrived. Waited about 20 minutes for one item to arrive. No drinks yet. Another 5-10 minutes 2 more items arrived along with our drinks. Nothing more came. At 7:15 we cancelled the rest of our dinner as our show started at 7:30. It took another 5 minutes just to get a check. Bad, bad experience.

    It is not a place to have a pleasant dinner date. We had a reservation and still, had to wait close to 55 min to be seated! The music was so loud at the dining area and did not make it like a high end restaurant at all! It is a restaurant for people who are attending a show nearby. We would not recommend this place to anyone and would never go back!

    Our waiter was just amazing. The food was great and everyone made us feel special on our anniversary leading up to the show at the Pantages. Highly recommend and want to sincerely thank our waiter. He offered great recommendations and ensured we were not late for the show.

    The restaurant is very cool & very LOUD! It doesn’t help that every time the hosts walk someone to their table they yell when they enter the room
