Beautiful ambiance. Great vibes with music. The live music was a nice touch as well. Deserts are incredible.. ordered the carrot cake. I’m not a big carrot cake fan, someone at the table shared theirs with me…. it was amazing.

Phenomenal food, drinks, atmosphere and service! The only issue we had was they kind of rushed us out once we finished dinner. We got caught up in talking and just catching up with friends, so it would’ve been nice to just chill a little longer after dinner and enjoy the atmosphere and company, but we just moved to SOHO house and spent our money and time there instead, so, as a business owner myself, I feel they left a little money on the table. Regardless, overall fantastic experience and place! The vocalist singing was great too!

Beautiful restaurant, dim lighting, tasty food. Just know that they will be watching you hard. My friend and I went for drinks. We sat at the bar since we didn’t have dinner reservations. We ordered drinks and appetizers. I made the mistake of taking a pic of the dining room, and out of nowhere, a man working there came from behind me and said “sir, no pics allowed in here please.” Okay, that’s understandable. I apologized and didn’t take anymore. It came out blurry anyway. And I deleted it. The bartender was very attentive and gave great advice on drink choices. Thus, I was happy to leave her a great tip. I signed the receipt and left a cash tip. As we got up to leave, another staff member was literally standing right behind me and said, “I saw you using your calculator for the tip. Next time, all you need to do is double the taxes”. I was shocked and appalled that he was watching me so closely. I told him, first of all, I already know that. Second, why are you all in my business? And third, I left way more than 18 percent. Like I said, it’s a beautiful restaurant with great food and great ambiance, but just know that the staff will be watching you hard. Perhaps because of the dim lighting. I get it. And I know it’s from the top down, and the staff is just trying to do their job. But I was very offended that this man was all in my business as I left my tip. You don’t need to tell me how to tip. BACK OFF! I wish I would have gotten his name. Older middle age, Hispanic looking gentleman. He was out of line.

This place is so loud, you can't hear anything. Definitely not a "speakeasy." They blast music louder than a nightclub. There are a number of reviews that say just that, so why don't they turn down the music? I suspect it's because they really don't care about their patrons experience. This place is coasting on it's "cool factor" because a celebrity or two gets special treatment there. I hope the celebrities are paying their bills, because I won't be back. Here are other specific problems that a restaurant at this price point ($30-70 entrees and $20+ drinks) should not be struggling with: 1) We had an 8:15pm reservation on a Tuesday, showed up at 8:10pm. We were not seated until after 9pm. Hey, things happen, but when we inquired at 8:45pm when we might be seated, a completey disinterested hostess informed is that they had just seated a 6pm reservation, as if that explained everything. The restaurant was not full. She seemed not to understand that such a statement made the restaurant look disorganized and disinterested in customer experience. I guess Delilah just thinks it's that cool, that they needed be bothered with managing their seating. 2) The server was rushed and harried. She was pleasant enough, but it was not a high-end experience. She also couldn't answer questions about items on the menu and seemed clueless as to the basics of food service. For example, we ordered coffee with milk and sugar. She brought spenda and seemed confused as to why that wasn't the same. She indicated she couldn't find regular sugar. I suggested most bars keep sugar for a number of drinks, so she should check there. Viola, we then had sugar. 3) The food was fine. Not cold, as others have mentioned, but just uninspired and boring. At Delilah's price point, the food should be better than Olive Garden. 4) The much lauded decor is not as charming up close. It's so dark you have to get a light to read the menu. The styling in-person is actually a mix of mid-century (sofas, paneling, tables) and art deco (wall paper and pillars), which I personally did not find appealing. The place may have potential, but management needs to focus as much on each customer's experience as it does on attracting VIPs if they want to be in business for the long haul.

Went for dinner and drinks and the food was good, but I wouldn't say it was great. Nothing special, Was missing that spark of creativity. The drinks were great and strong AF. The server deff made the night even better. Exceptional customer service.

Went on 12/18/22 very holiday feels. I truly enjoyed the ambiance and the Jazz. I stayed until the night ended so here is a full night experience review. 1. The food: Needs more flavor. There is nothing that made this food stand out. I had the salmon and my gf had the veggie pasta w squash. It was very bland. Sorry. 2. Servers: the server we originally had taking our drink orders disappeared and never came back:/ We had another server approach us later about why we hadn’t gotten started on drinks…. Overall I would say the service is average if you are not a celebrity. 3. Security: On point. Very attentive, friendly and always walking around the venue to ensure people aren’t too drunk. 4. Parking. $15 before 8pm $20 after. 5. Music: Ambiance changes to more of a club scene after dinner. I would say by 11pm we were in club mode. 6. Drinks: I had Drakes Spritzer $20 - my girlfriend tried it and agreed with me that it was watered down. Would have hoped for a bit more attention from the bartender as well especially since I grabbed drinks around 6:15 and no one was really there yet. My girl had the Post Melon. I feel that hers was prepared way better than mine.
