One of the Best if not the Best restaurant I went to .. the food was 20 out of 10 .. the bartender / waiter went above and beyond . My wife caught a migraine and he did everything in his power to make it comfortable for her. Which speaks volumes for me . Service was exceptional..the cherry lounge will be our regular spot weekly now.

We had reservations at 3 pm on Mother’s Day when we get there we saw two tables with reserved cards on them thinking one was for us. but we was taken to the back where it was cold from the door being opened and the table was bare iron type and cold. We sat there for almost 30 minutes before my husband gets up to tell the bartender that we have no waiter and all she said was “no one came”?? But she looked over at us several times. The food was delicious though but at the beginning I was about to walk outta there with no explanation. My husband didn’t like the vibe it was ok to me and my daughter

Not really what I expected. Really not the type of place to make “reservations” for. Upon arrival for our 9pm reservation it was more of a “nightclub” type lounge. Which I don’t mind but they also don’t mention that it’s 25+. Which wasn’t a problem for our group but could easily be an issue considering it’s not mentioned anywhere on their business page on Google or OpenTable so if you make reservations be aware because the age restriction could possibly make you get turned around. We ended up not even ordering food because they informed us after being seated that there was only one cook and the menu was limited (easy fix items such as fries, chicken wings, etc) so we ended up leaving and going to another place. Overall the ambiance seemed to be fun but I doubt I return.

Reservation was at 915, ended up getting there a little after 930 because of parking. Finally got in there, sat down, was given menus, and then was told “hold on let me see if they’re still serving food.” Was told they were but that we had to wait 30-45 minutes. Food took over an hour to come out; appetizer came out with the food but honestly the food is the reason it’s getting 3 stars because it was amazing. We planned on getting more drinks and vibing to the music so we didn’t mind. But we had to ask someone else, who I’m assuming is the manager, for the waitress/bartender to come back to get another round of drinks and had to go up to the bar to ask for the check and for boxes after waiting for someone to come back. Finally was able to leave at almost midnight. Service was awful, gratuity was added to the bill so you can’t tip accordingly. I definitely just recommend the food. I wouldn’t dine here again but I would definitely order food for pick up and just drink at home.
