REAL Review

Some things we did last month..

You showed up and brought the best version of yourself to our recent cocktail hour at jeans, and it was one of the best ones yet. S/O to our regulars that make this event one of our favorites <3

REAL Events

Check out what we’ve got coming up! Also included a few friends’ events that are worth your time (we will never feature an event we haven’t attended or where we don’t know the host)

REAL Reservations

Getting a reservation at the restaurants you want has turned into a full-time job and makes eating out less fun. We’re over it and want to make your life a little easier. Want one of these tables? Reach out and tell us why
