"The place smelled musty, like a wine cellar.... intentional? In the booth next to us management was conducting interviews.... really? Service was sporadic... I ordered the cheese and meat tray... the cheese was dry like it had been sitting out too long....... nothing great and no reason to come back."

"The drinks were good, and bartender was very friendly. The GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICH with Prosciutto, Tomato and Gruyère Cheese and “BITES” OF FILET with Horseradish Cream, were to die for. I will return for date night."

"Decent food and beautiful well done space, but they need to figure out if they are doing food or a hip bar scene. It seems to be trying to do a food version during the dinner time and then become a hip bar once the bar crowd comes out at 10PM. In my experience places that try to be both rarely work."

"The worst service I have ever had in my life! It took 1 hour to get a drink and 20 minutes before anyone even asked us
If we have been helped. Food wasn't bad but we ordered 10 things and the server brought everything out at 1 time....what? There wasn't
Enough room on the table for everything. When we all order a salad, that should come out first, right? We wasted over 2
Hours of our night due to lack of service, not to mention I got charged full price for 2 glasses if wine that should have been 1/2 off.
When I brought it to her attention she said she would take care if it and NEVER brought me my change!
We will never go back"

"We ended up at Mabel's when our group increased in size and original restaurant could not accommodate us. What a fun place! We were hesitant as it was a bar, not restaurant. But just right for our group. Very good small plates bar food to share. Prosciutto grilled cheese, angus sliders, and flat bread pizza were all very good. Good cocktails and wine selection, too. And a great bar to hang out and people watch."

"It was crowed but there sat our reserved table. The waitress imediately brought out my complimentary bottle of champagne for my 50th birthday. The food was excellent and it was just what I expected. The only negative is the noise level. In the pictures it showed more quieter setting but it was noisy. Thats ok it was a CELEBRATION. Thanks you for your service!!!"

The Bad:
- Our Waitress was EXTREMELY rude to us but was all smiles and laughter to the table next to us. I am not sure what her deal was, but it certainly put a damper on the experience.
- My manhattan was terrible... worst I've ever had.
- The food was DEFINITELY not worth the price. I should have stayed at Cien Agave. Better food, Better drinks at better prices.

"I had reservations for 8 people, and they sat us at a table for four. The waitress was extremely rude, and blamed me for not being able to fit that many people at their table. The manager tried to accommodate but was unable to do so. It was awful."

"When we arrived the place was nearly empty. We ordered drinks, which were great, but it took 20 minutes to get them. The food was also very good. However, by the time the place filled up, our glasses had been empty for quite dome time and the server never stopped to ask if we wanted another drink. It then took another 30 minutes to get the check and we has to ask multiple people, multiple times to get it - when we finally got the check the server seemed exasperated with us. For a place with decent food and drink and a pretty cool interior, I was very disappointed that our experience was so bad."
