Jonathan PetersJune 30, 2013Great bar in Downtown JC! My new spot to grab a drink on the commute home from Manhattan. Solid drink selection and food is excellent as well. Atmosphere is awesome to boot.- Miesha SuberJuly 18, 2013Don't listen to the reviews, they have been opened a month, working through growing pains. Get the Bistro salad, goat cheese lamb chops, salmon burger, oysters and a mango caprhinina!
Sam LeeMay 11, 2014Great atmosphere. Food and prices is good and is typical of a downtown bar n grille/bistro but nothing special. Just a fun place to meet n eat that was sorely lacking for the area
Reashun GladneyAugust 4, 2017The food was excellent & so was the service. Especially the sexy Jamaican hostess. She & our server was funny & professional. I will be coming back as long as they are there.
Robin McCarthyJuly 19, 2013Great location. Great food.. Nice look. Husband loved the short ribs, the pizza was huge for two. Good drinks. Manager was almost too attentive, the servers do a great job.
Omar LawJanuary 10, 2017Just here for the nightlife review. Their underground club is unpredictable. If it's not a special holiday, don't expect a special experience. Halloween was awesome here btw.- Tara BossertAugust 2, 2014I don't understand the negative reviews..and I am a picky person. Carlos our waiter was great and so was the food. Get the short ribs!
Jeff HMay 5, 2014Watch out for misleading sign about discount drinks on patio bar. Patio bar is a small sliver of space where they actually serve the discounted drinks. And their food is average/fair at best
Sunny YounJanuary 26, 2014fun bar scene with Euro/Lower East Side vibe, not like the chain restaurants in Newport, or the usual Irish pub. popular for locals
Aniruddha MandkeJuly 28, 2015Ideal place for beers with your friends. They have a good collection of scotch and single malts.
Karen RAugust 7, 2013This place is adorable. Great service. The scallop and shrimp ceviche is delicious and it comes with warm chips. Yummy!
Our pita bread had mold on each and every piece. How can a kitchen cut up pita and not notice mold
Isaac MalehSeptember 5, 2014A lot of great options here... The mussels are amazing, the chicken napolean entree is also really good
Great hang-out and people-watch place. No desire to eat there though. But, yes, let's have another round!
Cool setting and architecture. Food is good and well priced.
Nice new place, great for after work happy hour and weekend brunches
Mike LydenDecember 11, 2014Pizza is so-so, definitely NOT the best in JC. Service is a nightmare here, been half-dozen times, I'm done. Wrong orders, forgotten orders, long wait even if not busy... Too bad, great decor.
Baby Octopus is rather delicious and more as a starter ...
Marc ThompsonSeptember 19, 2013Waiter brought my tuna sandwich with alpine cheese minus the alpine cheese. Had to fetch bus boy to get waiter back to pay bill. This place is so hit or miss!
Colleen SheaJanuary 9, 2017Service and food are not very good and they are always out of certain beers on tap
This place is great except they give you wash rags as napkins.
QuilbyJuly 4, 2014Food was cold and service was poor tonight. I've been here on a non weekend night and have been much more satisfied.
Josephine LeeMay 27, 2014Decent food, worst service EVER! Waitress left after taking our order, got the wrong food.... etc. Keep in mind when coming here!
James BoyleAugust 11, 2013Too many pigeons! Like the answer track to TLC's Scrubs: We Don't Want No Pigeons!
ChrisOctober 12, 2013Don't waste your money. Ho-hum menu, mediocre food, and while the complimentary bruschetta was a nice touch but it sucked.
Joel BinnJune 11, 2014Avoid this place - poorest service on planet! They do the bill wrong an 20 min to fix? Lier!
Lester SeelyNovember 23, 2013Service was slow and food was cold after waiting one hour for it and the waiter just kept laughing
Priya ShahAugust 2, 2014Don't get the black bean burger. It's premade/frozen. The service isn't that good, very slow!
Vanessa WJuly 13, 2013Food is not impressive and seems like it's just frozen pre-made food heated up. Too bad, this place could have great potential!
Billy KimMay 27, 2014This place sucks ass. I mean serious dirty ass. Friends, please avoid, and ask all friends to avoid.
