This was one of the best meals not only in the US but it challenges France for some of the best meals ever created. The chef provided three meals and all of them left you yearning to come back again and again. Their fruit was so fresh it made you wonder if they pick them right off the branch before they placed it on your plate. Their pastry’s melted in your mouth and their New Orleans staple beignets did not disappoint. The service was amazing, the staff were super sweet and the atmosphere was incredible and we were not rushed out like how you are in so many restaurants. My family and I could not have asked for a better breakfast this Easter weekend.

Food was amazing however our appetizer arrived 40 minutes after we ordered it and with our entree. I finished my dinner before the server ever came over and she didn’t seem to even notice all our food arrived at once. We finished our water and cocktails without her ever checking on us. She had maybe 5 tables going but gave all her attention to one and walked by ours several times. The atmosphere is so cool. All these bottles lit up. Definitely a cool vibe.

Really really good food. Guy working the bar was nice. I had gumbo which was delicious and tasted so fresh and the beignets which were also fresh and like other reviews say- WAY BETTER than the other touristy places. Definitely worth a stop in.

Visited for breakfast; the place turned out to be more memorable by its atmosphere and unique decor than by its food but perhaps that’s because I only got a taste of breakfast. Certainly would come back and explore menu further.

Had to check out the cajun gumbo at 3rd Block Depot after hearing some other NOLA visitors raving about how good it is and soo glad we did. The gumbo was absolutely delicious partly due to the replacement of the traditional rice with mashed potato instead. We were pleasantly surprised how such a small change could impart soo much flavor. If you're a gumbo fan you must try the cajun gumbo at 3rd Block Depot.

Our server was great (despite being the only one working). Food was fine. Short rib had great flavor, but too fatty. Burger was good. Meat pie appetizer was excellent. Beignets for dessert were exceptional. Drinks were a little disappointing. For a place that markets itself as a creative cocktail place, the menu was very short. Cool space and decor.

I’m back with an update! We are back again! This time someone from the group wanted to try the Braised Beef Short Ribs. I ordered the Ribeye this time and we both had the small Traditional Cajun Gumbo. The Gumbo was amazing. Just the right amount of spice, yet I’m not in distress, like I am with most spicy foods. The 14oz Ribeye was delicious. Friend said the Braised Beef is very tender and melts in your mouth! Mmmm. I would choose this place again and again!

We booked a reservation over 1 month in advance for a large group. They gave us a limited menu but since the restaurant was empty other than us and a few patrons at the bar, they said we could order off the regular menu. We all ordered a drink and it took awhile to come. Fair enough, we were a large group so we could understand. However we didn't order our food until we'd been seated for over an hour. Lucky we had a couple appies that we'd ordered right away. After the first person in our group got their food, my short ribs came out 90 minutes later. The server came out after 60 mins and said they couldn't do my short ribs (mind you, short ribs were on the original limited menu they had given us). I couldn't help but laugh and it caught me off guard or I would have said to just cancel it as it was after 9 pm and I wasn't even hungry anymore. Here are the pros: the atmosphere was cool, the manager comped a few of our meals, and our drinks, and gave us 25% off to make up for what was an insane experience. They certainly didn't have to take off the liquor, but I imagine the few staff in there felt bad. However, not once did the server say she was sorry to anyone in our party or me who never got to eat. Honestly, the food was delicious though.

This was the second Thanksgiving dinner we've had here. We went back here because we remembered the previous one being so good. However this past Thanksgiving the menu was different and the traditional Thanksgiving dinner was not even on the menu. The server quickly recited it but it all sounded like an afterthought. Maybe next time at least have it printed up. So neither of us got the turkey. I had the short ribs and I have to say they were delicious. The only weird thing was the server went into great detail about their homemade crostinis when we were considering the fish dip with crostinis as an appetizer. So we ordered it and the dish came out with obviously normal tortilla chips instead. We called the server over and asked about the crostinis he told us about and he said oh- they were out. This seems like a small thing but instead of just bringing the dish out and not saying a word, he should have come back to our table and asked if we still wanted the dip. So, even though the food we had was good- those mis-steps made it less than and we definitely will not be back.

The interior of 3rd Block caught my eye as I was waking past it, so I made a dinner reservation for two on a Tuesday evening. The walls of the interior consisted of shelves lined with various glowing bottles, which made the restaurant look very modern and elegant. When my friend and I entered the restaurant at the time of our reservation, there were only a couple parties present, but we were seated at a wobbly table. The host himself noted that the table was wobbly, so we were confused as to why we were not just seated at another table, as there were plenty available. We ordered the crawfish dip, crabcakes, chicken breast, gnocchi, and crispy brussel sprouts to share. To our dismay, the food took an entire 50 minutes to come out. While waiting, we even called the host over to confirm whether or not our order had been put in, and he said that he would go and check to make sure. The crawfish dip had colorful tortilla chips with a healthy-sized bowl of the dip and the crabcakes (2) were beautifully presented with a pile of red cabbage slaw in between and an orange sauce drizzled on the plate. The side of brussel sprouts also looked very tasty. In terms of the mains, the abita beer brined chicken breast looked very underwhelming as it was a small piece of chicken in a shallow soup of the cassava root purre and chicken au jus. The gnocchi, however, was a colorful dish with grape tomatoes, butternut squash, and kale. Both my friend and I were huge fans of the crawfish dip and the crispy brussel sprouts. The chicken, as it appeared, was just alright and the bone in the chicken breast was unexpected and made it difficult to eat. The gnocchi was tougher than we expected, so it was probably overcooked and the crab cakes had a slightly weird non-crabby taste to it. Overall, I was a bit disappointed in our experience at 3rd Block. I had high hopes for the restaurant, but many of the dishes did not meet our expectations and the extensive wait for the food to come out despite the lack of a busy restaurant was frustrating. It was nice that all the food came out at the same time especially since we waited for so long.

The food is delicious and flavorful. The ambiance was casual. The service was great. When we first arrived, it took 2-3 minutes to be seated because the only server, who is also the host, was having a conversation with a customer. The server was friendly; he stated it was his first day after transferring to NOLA. I noticed that our server was very attentive to detail - he even asked if we had any allergies that they needed to be aware of! He even asked if we are OK with our food coming out all at once or to start with appetizers. He checked on us a few times throughout our meal and later started a conversation with us as well. The food was very flavorful. We were surprised that the Crawfish Dip was served with tortilla chips when it states crostini on the menu. The Yakamein was very flavorful. The shredded pork was mildly spicy to a Minnesotan taste bud, we don't do spicy well. I also tried my husband's braised short ribs and everything was flavorful and the meat was tender. Overall, excellent cooking. I also didn't know the restaurant was affiliated with W Marriott Hotel.

Came on Fat Tuesday at 12pm. Our server was not only the server but also the busboy and serving host. This meant we were waiting forever. Our bloody Mary's were served with our food. The food was bland but server is very attractive so made it more enjoyable.

The food here is definitely outstanding, and everything we tried was delicious (crab cakes, meatpies, rib eye, mahi mahi, brussels). Great ambiance and vibe, and an exceptional cocktail menu. The waitstaff were extremely friendly, but our dinner took quite a long time.

Stopped by here because it wasn't as noisy, it's at the W hotel so I guess it's a hotel restaurant. Pretty good breakfast, their espresso machine wasn't working which was a bummer. Food was good and came quick. Service was extremely attentive. Would recommend if you want something off the beaten path while you watch people walk by.

if I could give this place six stars for the food, I would definitely done that. It was one of the best gumbos I've had absolutely perfect. I also had their seared peach salad, which was absolutely perfect for what I wanted. My daughter got the bacon burger and fries which she said was very very good and the fries. I tried were quite tasty. Our waitress was very helpful, friendly and accommodating The decor was clear bottles. I'm not quite sure if there was anything in them, but it was quite pretty the way it was set up and the tables were comfortable.

I had the shrimp tacos. They are small - 4 bites - but with 3 shrimp each it was plenty. The flavor was great and I enjoyed them. The live music was awesome. Not too loud and the steel guitar and vocals were just perfect. The service was so slow it might mitigate the food and music.

We came here for brunch. It is a restaurant that is part of the adjacent W hotel. We ordered the Muffuletta Panzanella and the 3rd Block Hot Chicken. Both dishes were "starters"; small on portion size but priced like brunch entrees. The Muffuletta Panzanella is a salad, with field greens, swiss cheese, salami, ham, an olive relish and croutons. There were a few bits of thinly sliced meat and cheese on top of the lettuce. Surprisingly the olive relish wasn't very flavorful and the salad needed something more in the way of a dressing. The best part of the salad was the tasty croutons. The 3rd Block Hot Chicken had 4 small bites of chicken thigh and a couple pieces of very fatty pork belly, on top of the gouda grits. The best part of the dish was the gouda grits. The Bermuda Triangle cocktail was nice, with rum, lime and grapefruit juices, and grapefruit bitters

The Doctor and I made a reservation here for dinner as we wrapped up our Nawleans trip. Based on the menu, it looks like a good place to check out. I was also curious to see if it had the same feel as Sobou when it was in the space. The space is still cool looking and inviting. Food-wise, the dishes were good. The short ribs were nice and tender and the meat pies had a lovely pastry crust. I wasn't too thrilled with the crab cakes for the price....when you look at the photo, they were definitely on the small side for the price. The Doctor did like the Abita Beer Brined Chicken Breast with charred okra, cassava puree and a kale chip. And the King Cake was a beautiful presentation. The big issue for me was the service. The woman that waited on us was very nice and she was from Wisconsin. It was nice to connect with her. The problem was that I think that the only people working the entire restaurant were her and another gentleman, so it took awhile to get drinks and food. Not sure why the restaurant would have so little staff serving on a busy night, but for me it messed with the overall experience. And I felt bad for the folks working. The woman was the hostess as well as waiting on tables, so she and the gentleman were working hard.

Dinner with friends on a Wednesday night. I started with the "Hooch of the Day" for a drink. It was supposed to be a "cosmo-y" type drink, but that is not how I would have described it. And, I am not sure of there was any alcohol in it. I had the chicken entree, which was excellent. It was a beautiful plate. The atmosphere is minimalist. The dining space is broken up in two rooms. The service was a touch slow, but I think we were being served by the bartender. I appreciated his recommendation on the chicken entree.

Came here on Christmas Eve with my family! Weren't many places open, but the menu looked good. Overall, I left feeling like the restaurant has a great deal to be improved here, but some dishes are incredibly good! First off, I have to commend the service - every staff member, from the host to the server, are incredibly kind and friendly. However, the level of service here is not up to standards for a nice restaurant. They failed to clear our table after the starter, and did not replace our cutlery. The table had scrapes and was not wiped either. In regards to the food, we ordered the brined chicken breast, yakamein, slow braised short ribs, and gumbo. I would rate the last two dishes a 5, but the first two a 1. The chicken breast was dry and the skin was not remotely crispy. Please don't order the yakamein. But I am surprised to say the gumbo was delicious and the short braised ribs were a hit with all family members. The mashed potatoes were savory, and the ribs were incredibly tender and fell apart with a fork. We got beignets for dessert - another 5/5!!

The food here came ready to eat and when I say that I mean it didn't need any salt and pepper. We ordered blackened fish and grits with cheese and scrambled eggs and the NOLA hot chicken with home fries. The ambience was very relaxed but casual and very pleasing to the eye. Thanks Ashley for the great service!

I ate here three times on my trip due to staying at the W Hotel and having a daily destination charge that was only redeemable at that restaurant. None of the food or drinks I had were good. I had the chicken which was small and dry. The gumbo was way too salty. The crawfish omelette was very dry and overcooked. Even the cocktail was unbalanced and too sweet. The coffee at breakfast had curdled creamer. I'm only giving it 2 stars because the servers were trying their best, but honestly, I gave up on trying things because the food was just that bad and just accepted the destination charge.

Another bar to put on rotation for when we're looking for a French Quarter spot that's slightly sophisticated yet approachable, and they have a decent sparkling wine by the glass. I liked the space back in the day when it was Sobou and it doesn't feel all that different. We were in the Quarter and at that point of the day where we wanted to rest our feet and grab a happy hour drink. I do love a good hotel bar and this city has no shortage of them, but 3rd Block seems especially inviting, with its bar set back and plenty of seating at it/around it in a lounge setting. The bartender is super friendly. It's quiet and peaceful (at least at 6pm it was). I'll report back with my second visit... this place begs a return.

3 rd Block Depot Kitchen is a fantastic restaurant in the heart of Nola that I would highly recommend to anyone. The restaurant's atmosphere is modern and welcoming, with an industrial chic decor that perfectly complements the building's historic architecture. The space is bright and airy, with plenty of natural light streaming in through the large windows. The menu is a mix of classic Southern and Cajun dishes with a contemporary twist. We had sweet tea wings, the muffuletta salad and scallops. Everything was delicious. The restaurant also has a great selection of cocktails and local beers, perfect for pairing with your meal. The service at 3rd Block Depot Kitchen is friendly and attentive, though the night we walked in there was only one server. He did a great job at setting expectations and managing all the tables. The prices are also reasonable, especially considering the quality of the food and the overall dining experience. Overall, 3rd Block Depot Kitchen is a gem of a restaurant that should not be missed when visiting Nola.

Inside the W Hotel lobby. A sense of luxury and calm amidst all the energy that is New Orleans. Lovely breakfast spot. Would be a great afternoon wine spot too. Such great energy.

Gets busy. Service is professional, on point and congenial. Drinks were Blackberry Smash a few ways: Knobs Creek, Buffalo Trace, Japanese Sakura (favorite) and with Patron. Had the Bread Pudding, which was light but dense. The Caramel sauce was so gossamery, silky and delish! Definitely a good time!

We came here to meet up for dinner with some of our guest from our wedding. The food was really good. I gave them 4 stars because although we were a larger party, we received our food 1 1/2 hours after ordering. The restaurant wasn't really busy and there were only two other guests seated beside our table when we first arrived with reservations. The salmon plate was delicious and so was the drink I ordered. Everyone that dined in our party enjoyed their food.

Terrible food and service. Very short staffed and inexperienced. Most of the food we ordered was sent back. Scallops were over cooked, gnocchi was made incorrectly, crab cakes and shrimp appetizer were awful. Do not eat here! 0 stars!

Well this place was a hot mess tonight and it's hard to know where to start. So I'll start with the gumbo. It was actually quite good. Served with potato salad instead of rice, it had a nice rich flavor and lots of sausage to make it a hearty example. Really enjoyed it. But then there was, well, almost everything else. Like service that made us wait to see a waiter for 15 minutes after seating. Or the hour in between courses. Or the water glass that I couldn't get filled. And then there was my main dish: an oyster risotto. This was the oddest risotto. It was like a cornmeal kinda dried polenta or something. It just was bland, dry and not good. I couldn't eat more than a few bites. The fried oyster were fine with it but this was a total miss. I can't even remember the last time I ordered something this inedible. Tough to say on a place that is striving to be so much better. The gulf fish from my dining companion was far better. Wish I had ordered that instead. We did start with a crawfish dip that was fine and a meat pies that were like empanadas but just not as good. It's a nice decor instead but our room was very loud. The acoustics only amplified it with one loud table. It's tough to recommend this place given the hit or miss nature of dinner. Maybe it was off night which happens but that oyster risotto dish should just come off the menu.

I've tried to eat there 5 times. I live very, very close so it'd be convenient. The only time I successfully gotten food it was burned French toast and burned bacon. My sister had eggs that were fine and burned toast. Most other times we've been by (again we are close) we either couldn't find anyone to serve us during their open hours OR they couldn't make what we ordered. Additionally, while friendly the drinks are mediocre to undrinkable My advice - for dinner go half a block down across the street to Kingfish. It's always great and the pricing is equal or better. For drinks only go half a block down the other way to the Chart Room. There's plenty of great restaurant in New Orleans and the quarter. This is not one. There's a reason it's almost always empty.

By far, the worst dining experience during this week in New Orleans. The flavors were either salty or strange. You know how there are certain common flavors associated with a dish, and each chef adds their own touch, but the common base is recognizable? Well, you won't find that here. The gumbo was very strange and didn't taste fresh. The crab cakes were the biggest disappointment. I took one bite and spat it out. It was a ball of pan fried sludge. I enjoyed the cracklings and Brussels sprouts, but those two dishes couldn't redeem the night. I was too horrified to try the dessert. Service was not bad but not great. I think they were understaffed. The space is gorgeous and so beautiful that it was such a letdown the mea was so terrible.

Walking into the restaurant, the vibes are immaculate. The decor is beautiful, intriguing and engaging. Naturally, we highly anticipated our meals, but they unfortunately weren't anything special. The Natchitoches meat pies weren't very flavourful. The debris flies were subpar (some might say something was wrong with the accompanying sauce). The fish was good, however a little too salty. The pork chop, however, was very good. It was paired with such a YUMMY sauce. Definitely a highlight of the meal. Ultimately although the decor was fantastic and the pork chop delicious, the rest of the meal paired with the high prices didn't make this dining experience worth it to me. Not too sure if I would recommend or return.

Sunday night crawling and dinner at 3rd Block Depot Kitchen and Bar in New Orleans. This restaurant took the place of SoBou which was excellent. It is situated next to the W. I sat at the bar and enjoyed my discussions with the bartender/server and the patrons. This joint has a number of different rooms with very interesting and relaxing decor. I had the 3rd Block Depot Debris Fries GF with smoked Cochon de lait, pork jus gravy, pepper Jack cheese, piquillo crema and Seared Scallops with Lions mane mushrooms in a pecan pesto sauce. Both were excellent with the Cochon de lait fries being incredible.

Food is was awful. The service was completely off. We came on a weekend night. We were a party of 6 and ordered many different dishes to try. There were three other groups of 2-4 people there. The restaurant was 90% empty. The food took a really long time to come out and was cold or room temperature. The crab cakes were mushy and the center was completely cold, like ice cold. Out of all the dishes we ordered, the only edible dish was the Brussels sprouts. The fried pork rinds were stale. The burger was dried and tasteless. The beef pockets lacked any favor. I would never ever come back. I would recommend staying away from this place. I should have known when the restaurant is 90% empty.

We only stopped in because of the unique decor and decided to stay for a drink. We were happy to learn it was happy hour, yay! The happy hour snacks included a gumbo which I opted for since the unseasonably cool weather that day had chilled me. We got the cracklings too. The drinks were great, but I was thoroughly impressed by their velvety gumbo. Possibly not traditional in that sense but you could tell someone worked hard on perfecting their own recipe and I thought it was just lovely.

2nd worst breakfast in Nola (the worst served frozen microwaved breakfast sandwiches). We noticed this spot while waiting in the line at Fleur de Lis across the street, the line was not moving, so we took a chance on this place. It was a Saturday morning and saw only 1 couple eating inside. Great, we can get in and out quick, or so we thought... We waited a while to be acknowledged, as we could see a few employees decorating and blowing up balloons for what we assume was an event. We were sat at the table near the front, which was open to the street. We sat there for at least 10 minutes before anyone came back to the table. I remind you, there was only 1 other table occupied. Finally, a man, who seemed unfamiliar with serving, came to the table. We ordered, he didn't write anything down, it seemed like an especially long time before our coffee arrived. We were able to drink our coffees before he came back again. Why was it taking so long? Was he in back cooking? Where is the water that we asked for when we ordered? A refill on the coffee would have been nice, since we had no food yet. When he finally came back with food, it was just ordinary, not very hot food. The bacon looked like it was cooked another day, over medium eggs were ordered and the yolks were completely hard. The server forgot the fruit salad and waters we requested. There was another table that was sat maybe 10min after us and they got their food right after ours. I'm not sure what was going on there, but if the server had told us that they were understaffed in the kitchen or whatever, that would have gone a long way with us in understanding the poor service (just a reminder, there was staff there blowing up balloons and decorating, that seemed to be their priority). I think this spot has great potential, if they were on their game. They're across from the long lines at Fleur de Lis, they have great opportunity to pull people in from those long lines, if they had the right people working. The food was just ok, the bananas foster pancakes had 5 little slices of banana. Like I mentioned everything was just barely warm, overcobacon and eggs. The potatoes were good and I enjoyed my cappuccino. Really cute setting with walls lined with bottles. I would not come back, people looked in as we were eating and we told them, that it was a waste of their time. It took so long for the server to come back and take the credit card, that we decided to pay with cash so that we could just leave.

Dinner 10/09/22 We stumbled on 3rd Block Depot Kitchen and Bar after trying to find somewhere to have dinner. Most places required reservations and we didn't make any, so we were able to sit in the full service bar and have dinner. After doing the whiskey tour at Sazerac, my husband ordered a Sazerac while I opted for sweet tea. We started with the Boudin and Cracklins. It was rice stuffed in a pork casting, a deep fried rice ball and pork rinds. With the exception of the pork rinds, I'd never had this before. It tasted good but I probably would not order it in the future. For our entrées my husband got the Rabbit Parpardelle and I ordered the Shrimp Ceviche. His rabbit was overcooked but the pasta was good. It was a pretty hearty pasta dish. The Shrimp Ceviche was too acidic and the noodles did nothing for the ceviche. Noodles and ceviche do not pair well together. I don't recommend it. It was an average dinner for a hotel restaurant. Definitely not memorable.

So many choices in the French Quarter! 3rd Block was the best we tried for gumbo. It was truly amazing. Having already been in the city a couple of days, we had been searching for a gumbo that would would blow us away. No luck until we ate at 3rd Block. So delicious with a perfect roux and served with potato salad Cajun style. Yes, yes, yes.

First stop on my New Orleans food tour was 3rd Block Depot Kitchen. Very nice, esthetically pleasing establishment. The gumbo was very interesting with a thick roux; being from South Carolina(Gullah), I was VERY much critiquing everything being that we have similar cultures. There was an undertone to the taste that I could not put my finger on and the potato salad in the middle of the gumbo was different but it wasn't bad..oddly enough. Service was kind of slow but the food tour was enjoyable.

In New Orleans just for a few days? Come for weekend brunch with a fun (and funny) burlesque show! Delicious and with a side of sexy legs! I heard of this place directly from the amazing Bella Blue, renowned burlesque entertainer and all around cool lady. The brunch special comes with a starter and a main meal, plus the show. It's a fun spot, good vibes with great eats. Everything we ordered was delicious. We got the veggie frittata, artisan cheese plate, smoked salmon and dill app, and the bananas foster French toast. The hooch we opted for was the sex on the beach. And honestly the best drink I've had in a while. The waiter was so nice he even gave us free sample shots to see what we liked. When I'm back in Nola, I'll be hitting this spot again for their fun weekend brunch.

Great spot if you want to avoid loud tourists. Food was amazing. Highly recommend the burger, shrimp with brioche and gnocchi. Absolutely superb food.

Can't rate the food because we left before eating. Had a reservation. Told to wait 7-8 min for them to transition between breakfast and brunch. Came back after 15 min and same hostess glared/ignored us. Place was nearly empty, which aloud have been a sign since many restaurants on block had lines out the door. After standing at the hostess desk for several minutes without acknowledgment, we left and found a welcoming, full, delicious brunch experience.

Service great, everything else was a Nah.. for me. In a city with great food don't waste your time here.

My daughter had the Burger from this restaurant we found out that the ingredients are seasonal, which was really nice. I had the chicken Caesar salad, which was phenomenal. I also had one of their cocktails call the doctors orders. It was served in a cute jar with a cup of ice, garnished with a Strawberry. The entire staff was exceptional. From the hostess to the bartender we received excellent service. The restaurant is beautiful with a very chic ambience.

LEGS AND EGGS!!! It is an experience like no other. We knew we wanted to see a burlesque show while in town, I originally looked at a ton cabarets or lounges but I saw an article about Bella Blue and decided to check out her schedule and we booked the brunch. Ashley was our server, and she was great,friendly, and attentive! The brunch menu is neat because the courses include a starter. I ordered the cheese plate, and my husband ordered a salad for his starter. For our entrees, we both ordered the steak and eggs. The vegetable hash was so good, the steak was cooked perfectly and the horseradish cream sauce was delicious! I wish we had a fridge in our room because we were so full, and I just wanted more and more! Cory opted for the bottomless mimosa. He said it was good, and I tried a sip. Basic mimosa, which isn't a bad thing. I was nursing a hangover and opted for the raspberry mocktail, which hit the spot! While you are enjoying brunch in a great open-air dining room, Bella dances and impresses! We expected a stage, and there is a sort of platform between the 2 rooms, but Bella actually moves and interacts throughout the experience. She is absolutely stunning, sweet, and just so talented. I highly recommend making sure to get that brunch whenever it's offered.

Come for the social hour from3-6pm we had tacos, meat pies which were delicious. Gumbo was good too (comes with mash potatoes instead of rice). Staff was nice, the decor is very cool and interesting. Caught the end of a tour that made a stop in for the bread pudding so that's probably pretty good too. All in all loved this spot so much we came back twice during our stay.

Outstanding place. The menu had so much variety it was difficult to decide which option to choose. Makes it easy to want to come back again. Our server Whitney was wonderful. Attentive, helpful, kind, fun, and respectful. And...the atmosphere is very cool. It was just what our group needed after a long day of meetings. Thank you so much for a fabulous experience.

We went to the bar to stop in as our feet were hurting from walking around. Saw the vibe and immediately fell in love with the place. The bartender was phenomenal. Her name was Katonya and if she is working, I highly recommend stopping by. She is super thoughtful and KNOWS what she's doing. Probably one of the best bartenders I've had the fortune of pouring a drink for me. Stop in and bring your thirst.
