EDIT: This is a prime example of how a bad experience with an employee can ruin one’s opinion of an establishment. As you can see below, my first review of this place was glowing. I went back to take more pictures and have more food because I enjoyed it so much the first time.

They were busier, which was to be expected, it was a Friday early evening. I sat at the bar. The brother behind the bar is always cool. ☺️ I had a waiter with a blonde ponytail, he wasn’t so attentive, so I was also ordering from the bartender. He was nice. A third guy behind the bar was a little bit snarky, I didn’t interact with him much, but ironically, HE was the one who asked me to write a review. I was thinking “based on what? “🤔

I waited a while for my bill, and finally I paid and tipped the young guy behind the bar. I began to leave. The blonde waiter rushed after me at the stairs, and very abruptly said “you need to pay.“ I turned. He modified to “who did you pay?” Gesturing to the bar, I said “yes, I paid him.” Blondie asked his colleague, who confirmed, then he turned away to the computer and just left me standing there.

Finally, I said “so is everything OK?” Without even really looking back at me, he said “yes.“ That was so OBNOXIOUS. It’s not my fault that he wasn’t keeping track of what I was doing. Was I supposed to sit there waiting all night for him to come back with a bill?

You don’t accost customers like that. The implication he made is that I left without paying. It’s rude. The waiter should’ve come up and said “I’m so sorry, can you let me know who you closed your bill with?”

Oh, and the oysters were still yummy, but the shrimp wasn’t so good the second time around.

I doubt I’ll be back soon. —— Decent prices for food and drinks, really nice wait staff, and it’s a lovely setup. Feels cozy and cool. My oysters were lovely. I also got the crevettes and mayo, that was so tasty, I got a second order!
