I went there on a blind date, and regardless of how the date turned out, the workers were snooty, and the clothes hanging at the front of the store just looked pretentious. I looked at a trench coat that turned out to be $900. $900 for a trench coat??? And there were sneakers, that apparently you could buy, in a glass case up against a wall. They were all these bright colors, high-top sneakers that don't look like anyone would buy them. I didn't have any food, but I had a glass of wine that was just horrid. Stay away from the wine.

My wife and I Love this place. The space is a open loft with a Retail Store, Lounge, and Restaurant. The menu is the creation of Chef Michael Leviton of Lumiere fame. We had the Scallop and Ribs to start both were wonderful. We took the advice of the waitress and shared the 32 oz Ribeye with a side of Fries which are the best I've ever had!!! The staff attire is very relaxed wearing T-Shirts and Jeans however the service was attentive but no overbearing. The only down falls was the bright lights at the bar but the General Manager assured were being toned down. Can't wait to go back!

Loved the food and the menu. Food cooked to perfection. Very diverse menu and interesting flavors. Food came out hot and SO good. Thought the bar and restaurant had a great vibe and loved the entire space. Service was so-so. Looking forward to going back to this place and seeing how it grows.
