    We stumbled across this place while planning a getaway trip to Norfolk and so glad we did. We made a reservation but opted to sit at the bar and it was such a fun experience. The bartender was personable and funny and the music was perfect. Not so loud that we couldn't enjoy conversation. The food was yummy and arrived quickly. Can't wait to return!

    My meal was very good, the service was excellent, and Janna Ross's musical performances were outstanding. I will definitely return.

    It was restaurant week we got there right when the opened and our waiter was prompt and advised us to put in all three courses at one time so they would come out quickly since they were goin to get busy. So we did. But each course took a while to come out The first course I got lamb stew it was hot and delicious. The second course I got the fried shrimp it was hot and crispy and the sauce was good. The entree I got the petite filet and scallops and mashed potato’s and asparagus. It was cold the butter didn’t even melt on the filet. The scallops didn’t even look like the were seared, no flavor. The filet did taste good but I believe it would have been better hot and the butter melted.

    Food was not worth what I paid. 18% gratuity is automatically added when the party is more than 1. Tax was insane on the meal as well. Took over an hour for my food to come out and once it did, it was cold. Asked for compensation for mine and my boyfriends meals, (totalling $167), and was only given a $25 gift card. I don’t recommend the place.

    Overall good experience for my first time. Took a chance on the veggie meatloaf & it was very flavorful just a tad salty! Live piano music was a nice touch! I’d definitely go back!

    We were there for restaurant week. Seated at 5:45pm and didn’t leave there until 8:20pm. Food was very slow to come out. Had a ribeye which was good but the potatoes were cold. Must of been a staff problem. Loved being there though. Will definitely return. Didn’t mind anything it was fun being there and the other guests made it more enjoyable.
