Pricey, which would be OK if the experience measured up...
They have a couch, tables and chairs crowding the area you would normally dance. Band is way too loud for anyone to sit there. Why have a band that plays dance music with sparse room to dance?
Girls want to dance, guys want to dance with girls and no one thinks to make room for that? I brought THREE girls here and met FOUR more on the premise of a great band and night of dancing. They've made me look bad several times I've dropped $200+. Ggrrrr....
How about a great fireplace that isn't lit in February?
3 tables marked reserved for over an hour while we're standing up and spending money at an overcrowded bar. Finally, I said something and a light bulb went off. Duh?
Food is good and inventive. Service is slow but maybe they just don't staff enough the nights I go (?)
They really do have what it takes, but I've been there several times (always for the band) and they just can't seem to get it together for more than 3 stars.

This is a very small and narrow restaurant, with pub style seating for dinner. Although the space is a bit claustrophobic they somehow manage to provide live music.
