• Pros: Live Samba on Tuesdays
• Cons: sometimes it can get a little crowded..

Small, friendly, great food

by aechang

You might miss it driving on Elston, but this spot is cozy with a friendly wait- and bar staff. Wednesday nights are particularly great if you love listening to hip hop (with a drummer who adds his own backbeat to all of the dj's music). It does get a little crowded, leading to sometimes slow service, but every time I've been here, the waitresses have always been friendly and attentive, and the bartenders are always on top of their game as well. The food is delicious regardless of what you order, and the mixed drinks are tasty as well.

• Pros: Good food, good music, friendly wait staff, parking on street
• Cons: Small, can get crowded

horrible customer service, had to walk-out, AVOID!!!

by sophialinn

I have excitedly wanted to check out N for a long time. In fact I was so excited about it that I made my boyfriend take me here to celebrate my birthday. Unfortunately for us the service was horrible. Upon arrival, there were six small parties dining (three outside and three in). It was late, so most of the parties had their food. There were two employees behind the bar and one waiting tables. When we walked in, we weren't addressed for over five minutes (the restaurant is really small so we were very visible). Someone from the bar told me I should find myself a place outside. So, I made my way outside only to discover there were no clean tables. I bussed my own table and sat down. The same lady from behind the bar eventually came out with a menu. The menu is small, but the food items look really good. My boyfriend and I decided what we wanted to eat and drink, and finally our waitress came out. She took our orders and took off. The next time we saw her she was refilling waters at a neighboring table. She never checked on us and never offered us water. When it finally reached 45 minutes since we originally walked in, we walked out.

No water, no drinks, no food, no attention, NO THANKS!

Will not return.

• Pros: I was able to eat elsewhere.
• Cons: TERRIBLE SERVICE, really small, they dropped the ball on my birthday!
