Review by Marcy S.

Corporate Function•Reviewed on April 14, 2023•From Seattle, WA

Barry was terrific! He was responsive and punctual and never gave us an instant of uncertainty. His music selection was great, and he was in a tough location. It took a while for our guests to discover our "downstairs" area, but once they did, they sat and relaxed and enjoyed the lovely ambiance of the space, perfectly accompanied by Barry's music. We would hire him again in a second!
