    We came for the Christmas Pop Up and it did not disappoint! They carded at the door, so be ready with your id (we had to dig). The happy hour menu (4-6pm) was great for food and basic drinks. I had the White Christmas and really enjoyed the blend of flavors and festive white light up ice cube! The rosemary wasn't overpowering! Hubby had Papa Christmas and he really enjoyed it too. There are lots of games available for patrons to play, which was a perk. If you're looking for festive without fighting crazy downtown parking or crowds, this is the place for you!

    Waiters and bartenders were great. The bouncer was absolutely high on something. Was a line out the door, and he told us it was one in one out. Then let in some people that had asked if their school party was inside, when they came out they asked why he had told them their party was inside if it wasn’t. When we got in there were tons of open seats at our table and everywhere but he told our friends It was about seats available and made them wait 20 more minutes. Was so weird. Then he lit up while bouncing. Weirdest vibes ever.

    We are in Charleston for first time. This is a great place. Very yummy duck confit tacos, and whatever IPA I was drinking was top notch. The bartender (I am terrible remembering names, but he would wade unto alligator infested ponds wearing swim trunks to help his uncle do surveying) served a shot of "cold brew" that was so caffeinated it changed my life - I may never sleep again.
