"I have been to Social three times: twice with a group of 4 or fewer and sat at the bar for cocktails. Once with a group of 8 for bottomless brunch on a Saturday afternoon. I will strongly recommend their bar experience first and foremost! It was great, service was prompt and polite, cocktail menu was diverse and aesthetic (we loved the illustrations, very cute). And now I will tell an unsolicited cautionary tale about brunch. We initially made a reservation that ended up needing to grow (as it happens, Saturday brunch is popular), but there was a $25 charge per guest to cancel the reservation. We didn't need to cancel it, just needed to modify it to add folks to the group. Modifying the reservation was not an option on the website, even two days before the reservation. I tried to call and the phone number I found on Google and Yelp was for an insurance company. When we did get through with a different number that my friend found somewhere, they were very polite about adding guests to the reservation which makes sense because the place was totally empty. Saturday at 12pm, beautiful weather, and a $25 cancellation fee PER person you would expect more of a crowded/upbeat atmosphere. Reservation mishaps aside, the food was fine (it's hard to mess up a breakfast quesadilla). I'd love to see a more exciting brunch menu, but in all honesty we came for the mimosas. They were also fine. It was $24 for bottomless which is a great deal in my opinion. Service was lackluster we had a table of 8 and I think she came to our table three times total in the 2.5 hours we were there. I do have great memories from Social now, because ultimately I was at bottomless brunch with my friends, but the actual restaurant experience left much to be desired."
