Nestled in the thriving north hills community, this muddled establishment had an ON DUTY manager at the helm who seemed to lack any interpersonal skills whatsoever. As a matter of fact he definitely played the role of an OGRE quite well and insisted on berating us for absolutely no reason.

This is a beautifully decorated restaurant, with an extremely large and quite impressive patio, up until the point where the interaction begins, at which point you take a moment to really look around and realize this establishment is lacking operational structure. Although the wait for a table was 45 minutes, many of the tables on the patio remained empty the entire time. An hour wait for a table here is a gift, ours was 45 minutes, which turned into over an hour.

One would consider the opportunity to seat more people much quicker if you actually cleared and cleaned the dirty tables immediately, rather than let them sit for 30 minutes. The unsightly view of dirty dishes, littered with food scraps does nothing good for a restaurant's image, especially when its the largest and first table you see when walking in the door.

So, while you sit and wait on the sands of the hourglass to receive a table, the exceptional bartenders will keep your lips wet and provide a higher level of customer service. I would advise to steer clear from shuffling up to an empty table without permission, you will get your hand slapped. Also be sure to ask them to wipe down the patio tables prior to being seated, they don't seem to object to dog owners use them as dog beds, quite disgusting!

Although we never officially received a table, we did enjoy a few drinks on the patio until the toxicity level of the on duty manager completely turned us off, we went across the street to Rosewater Kitchen and Bar.

Just about everything offered here can be found in better versions just hundreds of feet away, go where you are welcomed!
Cheers!!

Nestled in the thriving north hills community, this muddled establishment, with an ogre of an ON DUTY manager at the helm, being absent any and all customer service skills will not see my business again.

This beautifully decorated restaurant, with an extremely large patio is quite impressive, up until the point where the interaction begins and you take a moment to really look around. Oddly enough many of the tables on the patio remained empty, while the waiting list grew. An hour waited for a table here is a gift, mine was 45 minutes, I guess I got a gift.

So, while you sit and wait on the sands of the hourglass to offer you a table, the exceptional bar and bartenders will keep your lips wet and ensure your good to go. Apparently empty tables on the patio are either to remain empty or be used as dog beds, which I personally thought was quite disgusting.

Although I never officially received a table, I did enjoy my drink at one of the many tables siting vacant outside. I decided to join my fellow loiterers and that pesky dog. Apparently what I thought was a harmless move, to make my time spent a little more comfortable, was a big NO NO! Dogs are OK, but a wine glass, not so much! The manager spoke to me as if I had no reason to even be there, I found his demeanor to be completely out of line and extremely rude, so off to the restaurant next door for something better.
