Since I can't respond to Scott's comment, I thought I'd leave another review. We absolutely did not get what we paid for, as you can see from the photos (our group is in their early 30s). Time stamps on the photos range from 10 pm - midnight (when we had to give up on caring because the bar was so crowded/bouncers couldn't keep up with the volume - and that's not a dig, just the facts). These photos are also just a small sample of the number of people that took our reserved seats. As soon as we got up to get a drink, use the restroom, etc. someone would slide in. This is obviously not on the patrons, there was no way they could have known since the bar made little to no effort to indicate the seats had been reserved. Scott is correct that I was up most of the night, of course this is because our seats were taken. My partner and I have both worked in the service industry and are always respectful because we've been there. We point blank said to the cocktail waitress and bouncer that our frustration was not with them, we understood management likely did not prep their staff for our group coming in. Not cool to play that card, but not surprising, it's low hanging fruit to say that we were rude to the staff. We also had an incident where the bouncer asked two gentlemen to move and they got in his face. One of them then proceeded to pour a drink on the chair so we couldn't sit down. I'm shocked the bouncer didn't kick them out, now THAT was being terrible to the staff. They also didn't have a manager on duty, which is just poor business on a busy Saturday night. The fact that the owner is trying to weasel his way out of this blunder is truly astounding. I don't know how he can deny what clearly happened. I don't know how Scott wouldn't expect us to legally escalate being scammed out of $1,000. He seems incompetent as a business owner, and I think that's apparent given how he responds and tries to spin all poor reviews. I also called to ask them to please reverse the charges to give them a chance to do the right thing before we take this further, but I haven't heard back. My intent is simply to warn others of my experience in hopes they have a better one. I also do not know anyone named Colton. Food: 1 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1

A complete scam. I paid a $1,000 reservation for our Jack & Jill to reserve 16 seats and, spoiler, we did not get the seats. We are in the process of escalating this legally (photo and video evidence are so clutch). Truly this was a complete scam. Do not go here and do not spend your money here.
