Such a great time celebrating my sisters recent engagement. Mackenzie was our severe and let me tell you how welcoming and amazing she was. A girls girl through and through. Please come and ask for Mack!!! And…the toffee dessert was BOMB!
I had my birthday party in the back patio and it was a 10/10 experience. Everyone I interacted with was personable, accommodating, and never said no. The owner, Rory, as well as Logan and our server Makayla, were beyond. I can't give enough praise. I will be back!
I've had my birthday in the back patio for the past few years and it's always fantastic! The patio is beautiful and they let you have individual tabs so you don't have to figure out a huge bill at the end of the party. The manager Rory is super helpful and always takes care of us and makes sure it's a great day!
I’ve never had a grilled tuna Cesar salad and let me tell you, it’s phenomenal. Everything about this place is perfect - from the atmosphere to the drinks and the reasonably priced menu. Will absolutely be back. Plus it’s dog friendly - they even have their own menu options !!
We hosted a galentine's event and it was so seamless because Rory and his team were beyond accommodating! They let us bring in our own decor and cake, have a craft station, and everyone paid their own bar bill, it was perfection! There was no pressure to spend a certain amount and it felt genuinely like the best place in Manhattan you could ever host a party.
