It was my best friends birthday and a bug crawled on our table. We told the waiter and he looked scared and said he wasn’t going to kill It. I killed It with my napkin. And handed It to him. They didn’t bring out a card that they have in the past nor bring out a desert either. Will not be dining there again.

Hide and seek was a very hip restaurant with decor pleasing to the eyes. Drinks were delicious! Food was good except the cauliflower steak had too much pepper in it. The downstairs area was way too loud.

I’ve been wanting to try for months and I’m so mad it took me this long, hide + seek was amazing!!! The French loaf was so fluffy and flavorful and truly tasted like French onion soup in loaf form. The pastas were incredible and the brownie sundae was a great ending. Vibes on point but it’s a bit loud

Great service and food. Music was too loud as we couldn’t hear each other talking at times.

Great food! Place is gorgeous! Service was pretty bad though. We had to flag our waiter down because no one greeted us as we sat there forever. He finally came over and took our order and he didn’t write any of it down which he should have. I even asked him “you got all that?” He got a drink wrong and forgot to put one of our plates in. As a result, we were so late leaving and almost missed part of a show.

Reserved a late dinner but host and servers all very welcoming and never felt rushed. Food delicious and great energy and tunes but still able to talk. Kevin the bartender/server was entertaining attentive and incredibly knowledgeable. Stylish without pretentious. We’ll be back!

Our waitress was lovely and patient while I waited for my guest. The ambience was great, she was attentive. The oysters and Brussels were great. I was not a fan of the croquetas, and I thought the mussels were just okay. Overall, I think this was a great place to have great conversations over small bites.

This was our first time to HIDE + SEEK and we LOVED it. We had the perfect table at the front window and service was excellent but the food was outstanding. Each plate had a new twist on a well-known dish (for example, the pears in the pear salad were shredded and the french onion bread was like a deconstructed french onion soup). My husband had the short rib and loved it. I had lobster gnocchi which I've never had before. It was amazing!! Gnocchi is my go-to pasta dish but I had never had lobster gnocchi before. I will go back for that dish alone. The brownie bowl was better than any brownie bowl I've ever had. The restaurant is beautiful and I loved the art on the walls. We WILL be back!
