    Kelly is the best! Everyone is great! We went to the drag bottomless brunch. Kelly was so lovely we wanted her to spend the rest of the day with us having fun!

    Had a great afternoon at Playlist today and Kelly was a brilliant host. She was on the ball with the drinks, not letting us run dry and was really friendly and full of fun.

    Decided to have some food with a few cocktails on date night and it was just a mess. Way too loud to eat and have a conversation. Surrounded by drunken women dancing basically on my table while I'm trying to eat a steak sat down. Good vibes for a drink but eating here in the evening is impossible to enjoy.
