    Great drinks. Awesome service. Delicious food. If Justin & Kyle are working your drinks and shots will be impressive.

    Usually great but today they were out of tuna and out of plantain which my server neglected to tell me UNTIL I asked where it was. Wasn't pleased with my experience today.

    If you get the tilapia, ask for the tartar sauce on the side. The fish is perfect with just its bed of veggies.

    The gimmicks like the pseudo-hipster atmosphere and swings at the bar don't make up for the over priced but mediocre food and service. Worth stopping by, but not staying.
