REVIEWS OF The Twisted Tail IN Pennsylvania

Kas

Very cool little place right off South St. The staff are really friendly and there was live music playing here. Chill atmosphere and awesome food! Make sure you come here with some friends and get the whole menu to share! Everything is delicious

Simon Heintzelman

Visited with a group for restaurant week. Of all the participating locations, Twisted Tail was one of the only ones to offer 4 courses as part of the deal. As the waiter said “it’s a great way to get people in, to get them to come back”, and I would certainly return to try what I couldn’t this time. Our server was great and checked on us often, her manager checked several times as well, and the food and drinks were excellent.

Brian Hirschy

Fantastic bourbon selection. Great atmosphere. Really kind and attentive staff. Glad we visited!

Nick Mendillo

Literally everything was delicious. I had the Velvet Slippers cocktail, which was extremely unique. We split the cheese plate (which was a huge selection, we just took the waitress' recommendation), as well as the smoked wings. For my entree i had the gnocchi. I will absolutely be back here, i don't think we could have chosen a better restaurant in this area.

Awesome Venue! Great food and good drink! Great place to hangout with friends especially when they have a great blues band performing upstairs.

Raashida Fleetwood

So good. We enjoyed everything we got. The shrimp and grits entree was a hit, as was the steak. We also ordered mussels. They were delicious, and they come with the best crusty bread. For dessert, we got the beignets and the apple cake. Both were delicious, and i believe one came with brown butter ice cream. I'll be back.

Tay The MUA

It's great if you love cheese and a kinda vintage ambience. Also if you like Seasoned food, don't eat here. Also don't go on Sunday for brunch, they didn't have half of the things I initially ordered for some odd reason.

Danielle Bossard

Nice space - good atmosphere. yummy BBQ food! the area outside was decorated super cute for the holidays.

Armand Robinson

Great cocktails! I like the small bites options on the menu!

Elan Walker

Twisted Tail is a small place on 2nd & South, the Drinks were pretty good and the bartender warmed up to us after our second round of Margaritas, but the big secret here is the FOOD, everything is delicious. We had the Pastrami on rye, the Crabcake and ribs, the meat just fell off the bone...

Walt Bealafeld Jr

Very chill place, great drinks and our dessert was amazing. Our bartender, Patrick was great and friendly. There was a live blues band playing upstairs and they sounded great. Nice place just off the beaten path. Highly recommend!!

Benjamin Math

The twisted tail is hands down the best place to try whiskey in Philadelphia. They have so many different kinds and the bar staff makes me feel right at home. For dinner, it’s a bit expensive but the food is delicious! Try their mac and cheese or the tuna. They are amazing! Come on the weekends at night for live music and dancing.

Domenico De Santo

Nice Location and really good with the live music night!

Khanh Le

Good bourbon. If you live in Philly, join their bourbon club. It's something to work for.

Rusty Tucci

Here for a Weller family whiskey tasting and it was amazing

Mary Williams

Great atmosphere! Wonderful happy hour peices on drinks and food. Extended happy hour for residents on Wednesdays!!!

mishinator56

Me and the wife first went to Paddy Whacks up the street from Twisted Tail. The worst experience we ever had, dirty tables and server that just didn't care about our issues and never cleaned the table for us. We went to Twisted Tail for a drink and was pleasantly surprised. The barkeeper, Justin I believe, was great and very helpful with the questions we had regarding Twisted Tail and what they had to offer. The place was also very clean. We will come back for sure for dinner, drinks and music! We were there on 02/17/19 around 3 pm. I will recommend Twisted Tail to everyone is see!!

Jasmine Rosario

This is one of the best happy hour restaurants that the hubby and I frequent! We love the dark stylish interior, the exceptional service, and the great prices!!! Craft beer on tap is $3, and most of the happy hour appetizers are $4, $5 or $6. We had the cheese curds (my favorite thing ever), the hot dog (great flavor but a bit too much bun) the fried crab bites (this tasted good with the cheese curd dipping sauce, but alone it was just okay), and the chicken sandwich (mmmelty cheese and tasted great but it needed some condiments). We love love LOVE hanging out here and we will keep coming because we LOVE it so much!!! I am excited to have dinner here sometime since we've only come for happy hour!

Ivorine Fung

Great food, get drinks and amazing live music

Kia Geiger

Went for Restaurant Week here in Philly. Amazing experience!! Food was fantastic, very impressive! Anthony, our server was perfect.. knowledgeable, personable, polite and accommodating! Will definitely be back!

Ty Stinson

Great bourbon list

Sandra Grant

Drinks were amazing, but dangerous cause u cant taste the liquor but believe me its there.

Ryan Kelly

I absolutely love their bar menu. It's soooooo delicious. I enjoy the large sized cheese curds and the popcorn is perfect for snacking on while you drink well crafted beverages. I haven't asked but I believe the bartenders are trained. I'm always satisfied with the service that I receive.

Rebecca DeNelsky

Great food. Our waitress was very sweet and helpful. Nice entertainment!

Simone Oech

Great food, I ate a burger. I have seen the breakfast foods as I walked by, which prompted me to stop for lunch. The house mayo with garlic and rosemary is great.

Robin Faehnle

Food was fabulous and the service was phenomenal!

Kevin Mathes

Great food and atmosphere. Definitely try the mussels and lamb chops. Both were some of the best that I've ever had.

N Moore

Love the vibe, the atmosphere, the food (try the crawfish mac and cheese!) and the staff are wonderful, too.

Charles Lehmann

Very hit or miss with the food. Sometimes it's delicious, other times it's terrible. The sausage gravy and biscuits was the worst I've ever had in my life. Jazz nights are fun though.

Joan Bachowsky

Place too hot for comfort- food good.,

Anonymous Trucking

An ok place. Sat at the bar and did NOT feel welcome at all. Bartenders appeared to be a little snooty. They were not engaging at all and offered very little conversation. In addition, The bartenders didn’t not offer any suggestions about the menu items when asked. The play is nicely decorated and seems upscale. Unfortunately, the staff does not know how to treat the patrons and Do NOT make them feel welcomed & valued. Just felt like cattle hearded through a restaurant and hurried up. There is no parking associated with this location. There is a Metered parking lot in front. Please be careful when parking your car because the Philadelphia parking authority uses that lot as a training lot for the new traffic police. Also, this place has an upstairs bar as well. This is where the music happens. Was not impressed with the place. Would not go back. There are other places that are much better than this to spend your hard earned money at.

Steven Krauza

We visited The Twisted Tail for a private party held upstairs. The staff was very attentive and helpful. Staff was knowledgeable and informative about the drink menu. The food was fantastic. I really enjoyed my experience here.

gordon curley

Cool space. Not too big not too small. One Central u shaped / Square bar area with restaurant seating around it. We were visiting from out of town and Googled it and stopped in for drinks only. Bartenders were friendly and attentive and give you a little bowl of popcorn. Drinks were well-made. They were balanced and delicious. As we didn't eat, I can't speak to the food. But we will definitely be back next time we're in Philly for cocktails.

David Bendes

Came here for the tail end of restaurant week 2018, and the special menu was a great deal. Our server was fantastic and engaging (and had great recommendations). The cauliflower flatbread doesn't sound impressive but honestly might be the best thing on the menu. Just trust me.

Kirsten Downing

Live jazz and finally a correctly made whiskey sour! This place was amazing. The desserts were freshly made, and service was top notch. I'll definitely be going back!

Patrick Thomas

Yo their happy hour slaps. And the bartender is very nice.

Anthony Bettuccio

Great bar staff

Harley Fox

Best bar in Philadelphia. I can never wait to go back. Amazing live music pretty much every night of the week. There’s a blues jam on Sunday nights that’s positively unrivaled. Amazing drinks, good food. My actual favorite place to be.

Samantha Munson

I have a mixed review of the restaurant. They seated us late even though we had reservation (difficulty finding our reservation as well even though they called that morning to confirm and ask if any dietary restrictions which apparently weren't passed along any where). Once seated we got our first round of food quickly. There was a lag in which we followed up to see why the wait and waiter indicated kitchen was backed up. An hour later waiter came back to apologize and say our ticket had dropped down and kitchen only just found it. Told our desserts would be comped but when we got the bill it was still included so had to have manager come to table. Food depending on what you got was either yummy (ribs, shrimp and grits) or just okay/not good (mac and cheese was watery and sea bass was overwhelmed with pesto). Drinks were good however. Just one thing after another happened unfortunately ... perhaps just an off night....

Chelsea Lonardo

Made a Saturday night reservation for my birthday dinner for 6 people. Had to add two more people later on, which was not a problem for the staff. Our server, Rebecca, was great - very welcoming, knowledgeable of the menu, helpful, and prompt. Food was fantastic. Highly recommend!

Theresa Minutella

Never had a bad experience here. Great live music! The bartenders are so nice and the food is delicious!! It can be a bit pricey but well worth it. Always met nice people here as well. Come out for a great time!

Jeff Olen

Interesting place to grab a beer, try some ham or eat a selection of cheese. They have 4 different types of ham and about 15 types of cheese to choose from. A varied selection of other foods. Everything we ordered was very tasty. I could easily tell the high quality of the food. I did not have desert. However, they have a unique selection of deserts. I can definitely see myself coming here just for desert. Located in an up-and-coming area of Philly with a nice amount if parking in front.

Tanya Jacobs

There were 4 of us. We decided to get the chefs tasting. The plates were soo small. We ordered the kale salad, smoked wings, crab cakes, mac n cheese and the short ribs. We were told the food would come family style. The salad and wings were good. They brought us 2 crab cakes to share between 4 ppl, next course was 2 short ribs to share and a single serving of mac n cheese. It was tasty but not enough for 4 people. The drinks were delicious tho.

Victor Perez

I went here as part of the restaurant week event in center city. The food was flavorful and plentiful. The service was great and we were never left wanting. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars is because of all the dishes we had, 2 of them weren't that great. I highly recommend it for anyone who's looking to try something new. I will be returning again, but will be more careful about the dishes I will try.

Christopher VanZant

Place is top shelf across the board. Excellent ribs. Excellent atmosphere. They have pictures of Stevie Ray Vaughan, Janis Joplin And Otis Redding on the walls. Also have a wide selection of Whiskies, beer and wine. I got the Kentucky Bourbon Stout which was amazing,had to get two. Right off of South Street.

Lynn & Andrew Budzynski

Chill blues joint with wonderful cocktails and whiskeys.

Jorge Rivera

I came over here with some friends while I was in town for work. The food was pretty amazing. The oysters were probably some of the best oysters I've ever had. The in house made mustard I wish they would just package so I could eat it every day. The texture of the Spanish octopus was perfect. It was as if it had two different textures which was very interesting. My main course was the wagyu tartare. I would recommend that to anybody even if they've never really had that kind of a dish. The duck cassoulet was completely different for me. But it was very homey and Rich. Perfect for the cold weather. Definitely a place that I'm going to keep coming back to when I visit one of my favorite cities to work in.

Bill Kynett

Awesome food & service.

Barbara Gallagher

Great bar and awesome bartenders. Such a selection of whiskey, Bourbons and Scotch

Willis Zhang

Expensive but a nice hangout spot after a day at Spruce St Spring Harbor

Wayne Hallenbeck

The burger was awesome cooked perfectly

Abdias Noskin

Was impressed all the way around, the service was fantastic and the service manager Alicia was a pure joy to interact with. Consider hosting your event here.

Jenny R

The best old fashioned in the city with superb service.

Kathryn Gustafson

Unique and delicious food items !

Sasha Daniel

Yaaaaas. The food is soo Bomb. The many places that make me love Philly so much!

Pam Casurra

Great atmosphere, great food, and GREAT COCKTAILS!!!!

Tara Sherman

Fantastic! Came for brunch and enjoyed everything!

Howard Shomo

Excellent food, cocktails were good and reasonable. Bartenders and waitresses paid attention to details without being over bearing. Highly recommended.

Zarifa Roberson

Great food but the food wasn't good... It need more seasoning.

Russell Reeves

Excellent food and high quality cocktails. Love the speakeasy-esque decor. Attentive staff and relaxed ambiance. Will definitely return again.

Fred M

Fantastic whiskey selection, expertly crafted cocktails, and a knowledgeable staff made for a few great experiences. Highly recommend. Staff also very well informed about food allergies and all the ingredients of their food menus.

Suzie Q

Scallops are amazing and their steak is mouth watering. The punch bowl was really tasty but beware it serves 5 to 7 people. Its a big punch bowl. The bourbon punch bowl packs a punch...lovely!

Samia Hopson

One of my favorite bars in Philly. Good music, great drinks, and eclectic crowd.

Samuel Levin

The food is good, really enjoyed the appetizers, particularly the smoked wings. Drinks were great, they make a great sazerac which if you haven't tried yet you should. Entrees were okay, my steak could've used more salt and my date's pork chop was more warm than hot. These are nit picks and I probably would've given it five stars anyway if not for the furniture. I was sitting on a stool that was basically a box and my rear end was asleep by the end of the meal. There were tables with chairs that I probably should've just asked to be moved to. I don't get why places do stuff like this and I'm not sure who that appeals to, but I'm not a fan

Debra Truhan

Colleen is wonderful! Cocktails tasty ... good cheese tray among other foods !

Naji Boo

Great Service, Fantastic Drinks, Wonderful Atmosphere

Hannah Sypniewski

Great food, great music and an amazing vibe. The staff went above and beyond catering to our huge group tonight and it was so so appreciated. Had a blast!

Carter Dale

I really don’t want to toot my own horn, but I’ve eaten in some of the best restaurants around the world. I’m not a snob and I appreciate good food whether it is in a fine dining setting or not. But I do have to say that my meal here was amazing. Not just because the food was superb, but mainly because our waitress, Stephanie, was so gregarious and congenial that it made me have a better outlook on life after my meal. It had to be at the perfect intersection between kindness and professionalism.

Walter Chesla

Stopped in while I was in the area since they had music; hungry, I ordered the hanger steak and potatoes. Seriously one of the best steaks I've had in quite some time - far exceeded expectations (I was expecting a typical bar steak), and done to perfection. I'll stop in here anytime!

Nicole C

Nice variety of whiskey and scotch. They have drink specials daily and food discounts during happy hour. The scallops are very good, but you only get 2.

Darren Breslin

Fantastic servers and food. Great live music!!

Zachary King

Love the staff: they're super informative and friendly!

Greg Grudzinski

Really awesome place, well worth it

Jeff Fitzgerald

Outstanding bourbon selection.

Benjamin

Bourbon and rye selection is insane. Food is fantastic as well.

Miriam Jacobus

My husband and I went to The Twisted Tail for a quick bite. Unique food. Very fresh and tasty. The staff is always polite.

IRA LARK

First visit, my wife and I loved it! Definitely going back! Great service (Stephanie was very attentive), awesome food, everything we ordered was really good!

Timothy Grussenmeyer

Great live music and exceptional food and service! I haven't had steak tartare that good since I was in France. We'll definitely be back!

Toni Washingtin

Great place excellent Live music!

Les Stone

Had a wonderful evening of outstanding food with a delightful server sitting outside on a warm Philly night.

Stephany Coakley

The jam session was great! Really good vibes.

C B

Cool bar and nice drinks. Also live music

John Thompson

Fantastic food and fantastic service. We had their tasting menu which was an absolute treat. We had the opportunity to try many different menu items. They were all wonderful. I would definitely go back the next time I'm in Philadelphia.

Jimmy Schneider

Fun and funky spot with a great vibe. Downstairs is your more traditional setup with tables for dining and a bar in the back offering a fantastic whiskey selection. Upstairs is a more eclectic spot with a long bar and live music in one room and a lounge area with darts and shuffle board in the other room. Come for the Bourbon, Beer, Burger special (or any of their other delicious offerings) and stay for the whiskey and love music. They also sometimes offer free whiskey tastings in the summer months.

Toni Thompson

Tried the chef tasting menu; delicious.

Siamanta Nthumba

Went here with some of my friends for my birthday... The fries were great, the price a bit high for us college students, but it was worth it--they had some music playing, the service was great... I left feeling great, and full

Yael Nehama Respes

Great scotch and whiskey list and their Blues Open Mic was fantastic. Be sure to go Sunday night!

John Krieger-Joven

Great place for cocktails and a beer. The Sunday evening blues jam is a great time.

Paul Schuster

Amazing premium food with a great happy hour, live music and very nice atmosphere. Perfect location for a date

Christian Ryan

Really enjoyed going here. I was fortunate to be with someone who really knows the Philadelphia restaurant industry so I not only learned a lot about the top places in Philly but I learned how highly regarded the twisted tail is. The cocktails we're great, and the bartender was very friendly and very knowledgeable. Great atmosphere as well.

Mark Pastore

really good food and better whiskey selection

thewaz 89

Great whiskey bar. Huge selection and knowledgeable staff. Pretty solid beer list also. I mainly go here to drink and hang but I have tried the brunch once on the weekend and it was very good.

Stephanie Hamilton

Nice place with good food and ambiance.

Barry Brown

This was the first time that I was there and the food and atmosphere was good. Food portions were good.

Nadav Shapira

Good food, great music, super service, decent prices

Lauren Meacham

Really good mussels. Nice environment. I’m super picky about everything and this appeased me. Would highly recommend

Norine Peterson

Food was not memorable but otherwise a good spot

Claire Seroskie

Fun bar with a great upstairs lounge.

Ericka Schwarz

awesome service amazing food

Juan Jose Morales

Great bar. They had some really good specials. $15 for a shot of bourbon, a shot of scotch, and a beer, pretty good quality also. We tried to get some food, but the waitress told us we couldn't order until midnight, which was weird. That's the only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars. But other than that, I recommend this place. It had a good atmosphere and good drinks.

Maya Simon

Today is 2/2/19 and my husband and I, were on our way to get Philadelphia’s infamous Cheesesteak sandwich. I requested my husband to pull over so I could use the restroom since I’m (expecting) and have to go basically all the time. First I went to Wawa across the street which was a very big mistake. I shuffled across the to the Twisted Tail and told the Hostess my dilemma. Never ever had I witnessed such poise, grace, and hospitality from any host staff! Especially, since I had worked in the hospitality industry in NYC for many years. Unfortunately, as I was leaving she was on the phone. So I thought the best way to thank her is via review.I hope her bosses or even the owner of this great establishment will see this review and praise her for superb customer service. She literally made my day! Thank you so so so much !!!!!

David Bass

I really like this place. Blues and whiskey is my thing. However the service is disappointing. Waited 25 mins to place a drink order. Great atmosphere but the service needs to be improved.

Brooke R.

Great atmosphere!

Roger Lam

First time here, very attentive service. Will be back.

Clinton Anderson

By far the best service, food while in Philly. This place was an unexpected but plesant surprise. Try it out!

Kreig Embriano

This used to be our favorite dinner getaway, as it had an excellent take on southern food, wonderful whiskeys and mixed drinks, and exsquisite service. Since 2014 we came here for special occasions, and would bring family and friends because we loved it so much. Things changed with the head chef in 2015, and it became a more Asian fusion place, but our reticence was dismissed with the delicious foods, and same amazing customer service and vibe. We’ve since left Philly in 2015, and just returned for a visit now in 2018. We brought old friends, telling them it was awesome, which was sadly no longer true. I made a reservation the day prior, and the phone interaction was phenomenal (they had my name on file, was welcoming, and were thoughtful to ask if anyone had dietary restrictions). I was excited. Then we arrive, and we are brought upstairs into the loud bar/music area. I’ve never been seated upstairs, and it was incredibly loud. Note, that this was just the bar scene, and 30 min after we are seated the live music starts. It’s even louder, to the point where we can’t talk over the music, regardless of the fact that we are seated at the opposite side of the building as the live music. The menu also changed again... once southern, then southern-Asian fusion, to some non-descript tapas place that still was retained its mostly meat-oriented theme. The loudness made interaction with the waitress banal as well; I appreciate a fun interaction, and this was rendered impossible. I’m sorry to see this amazing place change so much. It used to be a much more comfortable environment. I’ve had beautiful and engaging conversations with friends and family, in the company of delicious food and a homey environment. This experience has been degraded, where I cannot safely assume that I want to return. I understand now that if I were to reconsider this establishment, that I’ll need to specifically request the lower level, or wherever the music is absent. Alas, the flux and inconsistencies of this restaurant over the past 4 years will not allow me to make a sincere recommendation. If you’re a fan of very loud music and lack of conversation, or inconsistencies in the theme or the delicacy, you’re in luck! All I can say is don’t expect the aspects you love the most to last.

Myra Saria

Great Food! We had the smoked ham and cheese platter appetizers, Chops and Grilled Sea Bass..... Very satisfying to the Palate! Most of all Great Friendly Staff Specially Shelby! Highly Recommended!

Evan Jensen

A group of 5 of us stopped at The Twisted Tail for dinner. They seated us at a table inside and proceeded to tell us that their food is served "family style." However, while reading over the menu, we see sandwiches being served on their patio. When asked about this, the waitress told us that the patio and the bar get different menu's than tables in the restaurant. We asked if we could just order off that menu, but she said she had to ask her manager since we weren't specifically seated at the bar (only a few feet a way) or on their patio. The manager came out and rudely asked what the problem was. We explained we just would like to see the bar menu instead, but she proceeded to tell us that that isn't how they serve food since we were at a table and not the bar or patio and then she walked away. We got up and left. If we wanted family style we would have gotten a bucket from KFC. But honestly, they didn't need to be rude and shouldn't have different menu's for their patio and bar and their tables given they are all within a 30ft radius. I would not recommend The Twisted Tail. There are better and more accommodating restaurants in the area with much more respectful staff.

Robert Olivera

Good food and spacious upstairs. Found it strange they dont deliver the food all together to the table. My asparagus came out first and was semi cold once my main dish came out. Grilled Asparagus with the porkchop. (Watchout for the small mushrooms)

David Suddaby

I enjoy the food and atmosphere here. Brunch is always good, with plenty of sophisticated, yet comforting, choices. Last fall, I had fried chicken and sweet potato waffles; still think about it sometimes.

Dave Kile

Great restaurant. All the food was excellent. It was restaurant week so very busy. Our reservation got pushed back, George , manger, came by with a bottle of champagne to start the dinner because of the delay. Looking forward to coming back.

Trina Trina

Great food! Nice atmosphere.

vanessa welck

love the cheese ideas! drink menu was different and tasty! also loved the shuffle board.

Lori Harlan

Always our favorite place for great food and drinks . Love the live music and vibe of this place. It's our go to Philly spot!

Mary Howard

Service was excellent. The crab cake, chicken and waffles are the best

Dion Theroulde

As you enter the place you are welcome by a magnificent setting. All the dishes I ate had the warmth of a home-made food. Fantastic whiskey cocktails. Thanks to the Chef, Manager and Alex. See you @ your annual whiskey tasting .

Lex Jansen

Nice place, very good food, nice band and easily the worst chairs to sit on.

Nicole Rowe

Great spot, especially for hanging out on South Street

Kaz Kosik

Great music and hang that's why you go there

Paul Del Sordo

Good food. Poor service this time.

Phil Donahue

Delicious food. Well crafted cocktails. Bourbon flights. Tasty small plates [try the specialty ham with a cheese flight definitely expands your horizons [imported prosciutto has nothing on these domestic gems] There are deserts that we still found room for after a filling meal. Crawfish mac n cheese was a crowd pleaser. Friendly crowd. Live music. Lastly, servers who knew their stuff and expertly guide you to the dish right for you. Enjoy.

Nicole Johnson

Sooooo. Goooood.

Rosalie Jones

Just Delicious! Good food good service nice atmosphere.. We went for a late lunch and had the Shrimp BLT, Buttermilk Chicken Sandwich and a peach and arugula salad. I would have liked more grilled peaches in the salad but it was good! I want go back and try brunch!!

Tanisha Perry

Nice live music drinks were good

mike henderson

Awsum atmosphere and live blues music

VERONICA COOPER

My first glass of wine was what I expected. The second glass Taste Different like a cheap bottle Of wine that was left in in frigerator for a week Without a top. Better known as the bait and switch. I paid 20.00.

Sahil Joseph

We went there for restaurant week and pretty much everything my girlfriend and I ordered was delicious. Service was not so great but they didn't look well prepared with enough staff, especially for restaurant week. But still, highly recommended! Starters: crawfish mac and cheese, swordfish skewers, wagyu beef tartare (and one more I can't remember) Main course: pork chop and hanger steak Dessert: beignets and chocolate panna cotta PS get the beignets for dessert.

Jay Saunders

This place was amazing. Could have stayed there for hours. More than 100 whiskeys, good beer and wine list as well. Food was fantastic and they have live music most nights. Good outdoor seating when it's warm enough. Will go again next time I'm in Philly.

Q Smith

They have a nice bourbon selection which I am a bourbon drinker so appreciated that very much so and the staff was really nice.

Joli McTerrell

The ambience was nice. Customer service were attentive. Unfortunately the menu were not ideal, didn't have many options to chose, nor even appetizers. Server suggested a plate, got a stomach virus.

The Facts Machine

My babe and I took my sister here for her birthday in May of this year and we really liked it, it was a cute little spot. Has an upstairs and a downstairs. The downstairs bar area was pretty dimly lit, and it was nice sized, pretty spacious, but we went upstairs where there was a very cool live jazz band and a seated area where we served THEE BEST SHRIMP AND GRITS I'VE EVER TASTED!!!!. I shall return very soon...fin.

Michael Deaton

Yes yes yes!!! we had a great time with the adults of our family

Melissa Murtagh

Excellent food end exceptional service, as always. Their cheese platters are amazing! Highly recommend.

Sav Swag P

I went to see a jazz band. It was nice. There was no pressure to buy anything I was able to live to music in peace. It's a restaurant and bar as well. There is two bars. One downstairs and one upstairs.

Shirley Phillips

Great ambience, attentive and knowledgeable server, and tasty food. We enjoyed our experience here and will be back.

Kyra Rae

I've been here a few times now and it's a great place. Great drinks, music, and atmosphere. Along with that, our bartender, Shane, was exceptional. Attentive, friendly and very quick to get our drinks. However, towards the end of the night, we told a female bartender we wanted to close our tab and deliberately stated we'd be splitting the bill. She said okay and that she'd need the second card. She never came back for the card and instead charged it all to the first one. No apology or even concern that's not what we asked her to do. We asked if there was anything she could do to fix it and gave us a very flat yes, but ended up never coming back to us. Realistically, this wasn't a problem, but the way she handled it (and the fact she didn't seem to care) put a little bit of a damper on the great night we were having. Not one of my best experiences here, but overall it's a nice place.

Michael Sambucci

Fantastic two-story bar with live music on the weekends, a dart board and shuffle board. Beer selection is generally on point, and their cocktail game is strong.

Tiffany Califf

Great food, so many options. The chicken and short ribs are so tender. The are tons of drinks options and our server Shawn recommended several things off the menu. The lighting was low and there was a guitarist after 8 on a Thursday. We had a very romantic time.
