I don't recall seeing anything on FDB about it. I see it recommended periodically on Facebook, but mainly by the same person repeatedly.

It's in the old Christian's. Looks beautiful inside, but the seating doesn't look terribly comfortable. Long tables with bar seating in the middle. There looks to be some two tops along a wall with lower regular chairs. I can't tell if there are other options from any photographs.

I went once because they said it was open. Got there, bar was open but it was mid-shift and they were not serving food. I was disappointed because I was starving. Beautiful old church though.

Went with friends for New Years dinner. It was a pre-fixe, but was not overly impressed with service or food.

Building is very nice but the bar and food doesnt match it. The owners have been trying to sell it for awhile now from what I hear

The outdoor area looks enjoyable for dining or having drinks on a nice day or evening.

Most of the reviews on FB and Yelp are good, though most of them seem to be from a year or so ago. I think they're lighter recently.

It’s a cool spot and the bar is really nice. Food is just ok so I haven’t been back in over a year.

I've been a couple times for happy hour. It's pretty good for that. I can't really speak to the food, as we just had drinks and hung out.

food has never been mind blowing. But i wouldnt call it bad. Drinks have always been solid.

the wife likes the feel of the place, so we go every once in a while.

I went shortly after it opened, less than six months. Shared a couple small plates, but nothing stood out particularly. Not bad. Not overpriced. But very average. Cocktails were solid. Atmosphere was great.

As I recall we hit Cellardoor and Balise after that, both of which were better.
