The Vault at The Liberty Trust

Small bar in the hotel lobby with a large. Cocktail and wine menu and some creative small plates options. We were staying in the hotel so a convenient place to grab an early evening drink and small bite. Looks like a popular place so it was packed the entire time we were here. Fun to check out the vault.

We walked here but seemed like there was some street parking. Didn't realize that this was a hotel but the restaurant was small and didn't have as large of a menu as we thought. There are a handful of two top tables, a couple lounging areas, and then there are some high tops but not too much seating. They adieu have the bar seats as well. We had a server in training and both our servers were very attentive and friendly. I can't recall what cocktail we ordered but it was delicious. For dinner, we ordered the Khachapuri and the Japanese Tsukene Meatballs. They only had 2 main entrees but everything else was more small plates. The Meatballs were delicious. They were full of flavor and moist. The Khachapuri was also good but the bread was stuck to the parchment paper it was baked on pretty h

If you're in search of a top notch cocktail bar with classy ambiance, look no further! My husband and I recently re-located to Virginia from Colorado and I have a feeling this will be a new favorite for date night. Mark was our friendly pro bartender who also happens to be a history teacher who briefly gave us the background on digestifs when he realized we were fans. One of our drink menu favorites was the s'mores old fashioned and off menu fave was the black manhattan. They also have an impressive by-the-glass wine list and menu of small plates. See the attached pictures to visualize lounging inside an old bank building for a fun night out!

First the atmosphere is excellent. Upscale, marble, granite and ambient lighting and decor. Interior pillars, extremely high ceilings, tall windows, drop chandelier lighting, large bar area, casual seating area with couches and tables, we had requested a romantic table when reserved but got a small tiny table that had to have a tray added to the side to add space for our food to sit, was not a fan of that process especially because where we sat people were walking by and bumping into said tray table. The staff were very nice and down to earth, a little busy for tailored service but nothing to complain about. We loved the cherries on the cheese plate and the pepper jam relish but was disappointed that when we got home with our to go box the cheese plate had been packed without those 2 thin

I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience was disappointing enough to warrant one. This was one of the most underwhelming and overpriced dining experiences I have ever had. The food quality did not even come close to matching the price point. The dishes were poorly curated, seasoned, and incredibly plain. The crab dip and steak tartare came with pieces of white sandwich bread, further showing how there was almost no attention to detail. Even the cocktails we received were unimpressive. I am truly surprised that there are positive reviews of this restaurant based on this visit, I would not recommend dining here.
