Been wanting to try this place since we moved to Pooler. The entree’s we ordered, Bourbon Glazed Salmon and Cajun Chicken and Shrimp were very good. Their Martinis were also good. We tried the Banana Foster and Jolly Rancher Martinis. The appetizerwe tried, Bacon Wrapped Shrimp Skewers, was ok. The Shrimp was dry and are not individually wrapped. There is just a small slice of bacon on the skewer.Unfortunately the customer service was terrible. It was not crowded, but, took forever to order our drinks and meals. Took so long after we finished our entrees that we decided against dessert. Asked for the check. After about 10 minutes my wife went to the bar to get our check and pay. She said the bartender seemed annoyed, but, she explained we had to leave.Probably won’t be back. Food and drinks not worth the experience.Parking: Plenty of parking

1st visit to bar and the Cooking times on some of the food need to be adjusted. The Drinks and desserts were great. Waitress was very friendly, knowledgeable and honest.We will try again.

Do not go eat here for a nice dinner. The food is not great and way overpriced and so are the drinks. I've been here a few times and tried to give it a chance but it's just not good. They are super slow to get food out to you and drinks even if it's not busy. The past 2 times I went it took a whole hour to get my pasta entree to me. Go spend your money at a better restaurant.

We booked the VIP room when booking we were never told there was a 15 person limit. Thankfully 3 of our group had to bail last minute. Service was horrible we waited forever for water then 30-45mins for our mixed drinks, had to beg for water multiple times for our pregnant friend. We were there 3ish hours and all we got was one round of drinks and apps that half of us couldn't eat due to them being either overcooked or severely under cooked. When we did order food it was salads, burgers, and more apps and we waited over an hour and ended up canceling because they were no where to be seen. We also witnessed a baby sitting at the bar, no one wearing hair nets in the kitchen and none of us were carded. Don't waste your time here.

This place is definitely a great date night location, or even a gathering place for drinks. My wife and I did a date night here and it was awesome. The employees set an upbeat atmosphere. The restaurant was decorated in all chocolate tones they even have the history of chocolate painted along the walls. The food was five star and we enjoyed the drinks from there full service bar. I recommend that you make reservations in advance this place will get packed fast!

We came here April 2021 and if I based the rating on that visit, it would be a 5 star rating. Somewhere in the past year, this place has gone downhill. I ordered a burger, medium rare and what I received was rare. We ordered mozzarella sticks that were supposed to come with a special white chocolate sauce, it was served with cold marinara instead. The server was sweet, although was very scarce and extremely air headed. The restaurant was not busy at all and she didn't remember taking our order. She brought my friend the wrong drink initially, even though it was rectified. After this recent experience, we won't be returning.

Don't waste your time on this place. There were maybe five tables total in the large space and they "gave my order to someone else" and I never received my food. We waited an hour and a half and they still hadn't made my meal yet AND everyone else at my table already ate. So while I watched everyone else at my table eat their food, I ended up going to a drive-thru on the way home because everyone was done with their meal and I hadn't even received mine yet. They didn't even offer a discount or coupon or anything after never even giving me my food. I am very disappointed and suggest that you find somewhere else to eat - I can't even review the food because they never gave it to me.

Tried a new place yesterday just because I'm from this area. We choose to sit at the bar because walking in you can already tell it's a short staff and everyone running around trying to accommodate the guests. Brittany the bartender was such a phenomenal person, she entertained us so much we ended up spending 3 hours at the bar with her trying different martinis. The food was decent but not for the price, I had Cajun pasta which was good but not great. The martinis were on point along with dessert. I think once they get a more experience chef and more wait staff this place will be exceptional.

Visited this place around 12pm on a Saturday - was not busy. Waited at least 10-15 minutes before someone asked us if we wanted water, order was not taken for another 15 minutes as the waitresses were confused on who would be serving us at the bar. My friend and I ordered the Sliders and 1 order of fries. WAITED AT LEAST 40 MINUTES! There was no explanation or anything provided as to why our order took so long, also not a single apology. The sliders were BURNT. The fries were disgustingly greasy- asked for another batch & same. The place was oddly dirty. Should've went with my first instinct and walked back out!

Went to this restaurant for the first time on my birthday and I thought giving tonight a second chance would've made up for the first time but it did not at all. My birthday night our server was not attentive to us. His partner waitressing other tables took our order because (in his words).... "Sorry, I was in the bathroom, maybe it was something I ate earlier".. He said after the lady took our order. I looked over at my husband and asked i want to change waiters now. Could not believe it. I was so over it, I didn't remember to include pictures. Drinks -I feel the owner of this place is not keen to branching out in regards to experienced servers, cooks, and more importantly bartenders. If this restaurant is mainly based off their signature drink options, then you should take your bartending and liquor license seriously and invest in better service in that aspect. You're guests are better off ordering shots. I had the Espresso Martini and my husband had a Long Island; both were basically a sugary drink with no hint of straight or flavored liquor. The watermelon drink I tired made my stomach hurt. Food - I don't remember what we ordered the first experience but both times, the food was bland and didn't have any flavor. The Lucca pizzas were half way cooked and the only thing nice about the Pesto Shrimp fettuccine was the shrimp. Luckily that had taste and was slightly blackened but there was no effort made with the pasta and pesto sauce at all. Service -The waitress was attentive our second time tonight, however, it's not her fault this establishment is not putting forth better effort to make this place popular and with going back to. To be honest, the reviews that are complimenting with above 3 stars prefer safe and have bland taste when they go out and spend money at restaurants. My husband and I worked in food & hospitality for over 10 years and knows this place can be much better. I hope the owner makes better investments for this place.
We have been to this location four times and the food keeps declining. We went early and there was only three other tables seated. Our food took almost an hour and came out in pieces. The fries that should have come with our burgers came out before the appetizers. The fries were over cooked and been sitting under a heating lamp. The cheese on the loaded "waffle fries" was hard and crispy. They didn't have the items for the charcuterie board. The sliders didn't have any of the topping as stated on the menu. The waiter asked us how our food was and we told him mostly burnt. Shrugging he walked away and no one follow up. Sadly, we will not be back.

Tried the Pooler,GA location and was very disappointed. We were told to use the QR code, which I hate, to view the menu but neither of us were able to access it. Server told us to go on line and view the menu. He gave us the password but again neither of us could get on line. There were no hard copy menus available. As a retired regional manager for a large restaurant company i find it hard to believe no hard copy's were availabl. Stop being penny wise and pound foolish. You have a great deal of work to do that's for sure and you need lessons in successful guest service. Sorry but we won't be back.

Over all this is probably a good place for just drinks and finger food but wouldn't recommend for dinner. It took a very, very, very long time to served and that's probably just a staffing issue. Then staff was friendly though. The food wasn't bad but definitely not worth waiting for it as long as we did.

We arrived for lunch at 12:30 and even though there were only about 5 other occupied tables, it took almost an hour to get our food. Our waitress was trying her best to manage a bad situation but she was obviously not being supported by the back of the house. The food was good but the beer I got was 4 months past the Best Before date. We gave it a try but will not return.

Our bartender was amazing! He was very honest about everything on the menu and gave us great recommendations. The mules were a bit too sweet but the banana crème pie martini was to die for.
