Great experience as far as the magicians and speakeasy vibes go… loved having an excuse to get dressed up and feel like I’m going back in time! My rating has everything to do with our personal experience which I’ll share privately with the restaurant and can be corrected with staff training so don’t let my rating dissuade you from a visit!
