Rachel our bartender was outstanding. Very attentive, but more importantly, very personable. Jason the owner and the face in the front of the house is great. Makes a point to approach every table and talk with them. And the food is fantastic! A great place to have a drink and finger food or sit down for a great meal. I highly recommend Modern Plate for any occasion!

Amanda was very informative on the regular drinks. Sophia was the manager and she was so kind.
