What People Say

Reviewers on TripAdvisor and OpenTable rave about the fresh, house-brewed beers, especially the seasonal selections and Italian-inspired brews. Guests love the vibrant atmosphere and say it’s a “great spot to chill with friends” before heading out. The charcuterie boards and pizza are crowd favorites, and many appreciate the convenient location inside Eataly for quick access and variety.

Areas for Improvement

The space can get busy and loud during peak hours—especially on weekends and before big shows—so if you're looking for a quiet dinner, this might not be the place. Some diners mentioned limited seating when it’s packed, so arriving early can be a smart move.
