    They're cool with you dancing on the couches near the dance floor so definitely take advantage of that

    Don't come here for brunch because they try to hurry you out. Food isn't anything to write home about. Though the ambience is good. The wood makes it cozy. Still, other places close by are better

    Brunch mimosas are weak. Not worth the price unless you're an absolute lightweight. Music is cool. Brunch Pizza is excellent.
