    Horrible service. Made me wait for more than 15 minutes to be seated with no line and an empty house. I understand staff get busy buy at least let me sit down

    I really wanted to love this place—the drinks and atmosphere were great—but the service ruined the experience. When someone in our party accidentally spilled her drink, we politely asked the bartender/server for napkins to clean up the mess, only to be rudely told, “I’m making drinks. I’ll be there when I can,” while the spill soaked onto our laps. After multiple follow-ups and a 10-minute wait, the bartender finally came over with one small towel, acting annoyed and huffing and puffing while cleaning up the spill. Later, we waited another 20 minutes for the check, while the bartender assisted other patrons, which we only received after asking the hostess (who was very kind). We were surprised to see a 20% gratuity automatically added despite the poor service. It was especially disappointing since it was my birthday, and after having a wonderful dinner at Topside just before, this experience felt disrespectful.

    Lady Raven by Deloitte is the best drink I’ve ever had. Not on the menu but ask. Stellar

    This place is awesome. Delonte is a skilled mixologist. You have to get his Lady Ravin custom drink. The super secret entry is a great introduction to this place. They really went all-in on a speak easy. Or, you know, don’t come here so it quiet and chill for my own private enjoyment ;)

    I don’t normally do this but I feel compelled. This used to be a great spot and it still could be. The problem is that the current service is shockingly bad. The bartenders are great but the woman at the front of house needs to be retrained or removed. To make a long story short I walked in through the secret door and was immediately met with the hostess who I could immediately tell for whatever reason did not want anything to do with me. Which was shocking because all I said was hi… I then asked for a table of 4 and she immediately claimed that they did not have room. I then ask if we can split up and she becomes defensive and claims there are only single person spots at the bar. I knew something was off. So as an experiment I had my fiancé go in 15 minutes later alone and ask for a table. She now asked for a table of 7. There was some resistance but eventually she was given a large table in the corner. Now i know that my fiancé is much more charming than I am but come on…. Also when we got in there there were only 4 other people in there! Obviously once she saw that the remaining party included me she then would not look at me. Ultimately the drinks we got were superb and the bartenders were great but I will definitely have second thoughts about going back. I fear that a single person like this one is enough to tank a great place like this. Please do something to fix this so that Baltimore can continue to have some of the best bars around!
