Maybe 2.5 stars. I have experienced better from a martini/jazz bar. On a Saturday night, Sydney's was way understaffed. We sat (on the sofa's to the right of the entrance doors where there's a small partition/wall that keeps anyone sitting there from seeing the band) for a good 35 minutes before anyone came over to ask for our drink orders. I actually got up to go to the bar a couple of times (not being able to get the bartenders attention) to order a drink and get a menu. There was a waitress who walked by our group of 6 many times to a table behind us to service them without ever looking our way. We finally were able to order drinks and it took another 30 minutes to get our drinks. Martinis=juice with a splash of liquor so I always stick to my regular tonic. Can't speak to the specialty martinis personally but my guest noted that they were just \""ok\"". I ordered the chicken quesadillas and they were actaully pretty good for whay they were. Two of my guest ordered a bottle of wine to split. After the wine was poured it was placed on the table. Isn't a bottle of wine/champagne usually kept chilled in a bucket? No big deal, our waitress Nicole was knowledgable about the wines and cocktails on the menu and that was a good thing. After we were asked if we wanted a second round of drink, we never saw our waitress again amd had to wait for a while to get our checks. The band was good, can't remember their name. Would I come back? Probably not.
