    Bloody Mary, extra spicy. Otherwise it's a little on the watery side.

    The Food: Although Pork Belly is popular, it is very disappointing. Super dry, lack luster. The Ginger Pancake were okay.The Venue: Inspiring architecture and interior design - resembling 1930-1940

    Super clueless hostess just asked us for the third time if we were checking in. We checked in 45 minutes ago and spoke to her three times. Ugh, Rudeness!

    It was good, but I've had better at this price point. The venison is delicious. Service was disappointing.

    This place feels contrived. Public Mary while strong tastes underwhelming. Food sounds interesting and tries to be out of the ordinary but fails.
