Sentiment score

76/ 100

Score context

Direct guest accounts split between a lively room with standout drinks and visits where the cocktails fell short of their reputation. One recent guest praised the frozen margaritas; another found the mushroom margarita muted, and a 2026 account described unwelcoming service. The small sample does not support the former uniformly glowing score.
