I love this bar, the low lighting, R&B music and the sleek design with vinyls around the bar really gives it a nice ambiance. Vern was extremely helpful and made sure my friend and I got seats as soon as they were available. He also checked on me multiple times to make sure I was having a good time. The drinks were really good, I tried almost all of them and the bartenders were very knowledgeable. I wasn’t a huge fan of the food options but it was okay nonetheless. Definitely come visit, I’d love to go back! - Kimberly Disla-Castro
