I let them know ahead of time I was back of house at another Michelin start restaurant in Brooklyn and that it was my birthday. I didn’t expect any special treatment or free food, just that they’d care enough to not put unseasoned foodon my table. First thing I see sitting down is a cute little paper sign letting me know I have 90 minutes to give the table up.Cool, that’s not a lot but also not a little amount of time. I’m sure we could fit the dining experience we were lookingforward to in that time. The wait staff was quick to come quick to leave, no explanations about the food or drinks given. Hugeturn and burn vibe. The food was bland and didn’t live up to the premium price we paid at the end. The rice was watery andtasted as if they forgot to season it. Everything was minimum effort in my personal opinion. The octopus was ok, but like youcouldn’t pickle it slightly or brine it for an hour or two? Just so let down. Wish I would have had my birthday dinnerliterally anywhere else. The decor was cool though. Good photo opportunities? Good drinks as well.

We paired it with a couple of their cocktails which were super good- they have a fun list of cocktails going and our waiter was attentive and friendly when we askedfor his recommendations. The portions were a bit small for my liking but nonetheless everything came out delicious. I loveanything mushrooms and the main course was of course mushrooms and they seasoned it perfectly. We enjoyed the restaurant verymuch. I also think it's an amazing concept for them to giving back to the community by having complimentary meals so thank youfor this thoughtful and creative idea and having your customers best interest at heart :

Everything was fresh and delicious. Highlights were def the red snapper, ceviche and the tomato salad. Our server was really fun and engaging and steered us in the right direction as far as which dished to choose and how much foodto order. We accompanied the meal with a great bottle of wine. Highly recommend!!

For main courses our friends ordered the scallops, short rib, and paella. There were some other but those wereeven worse. Overall I’d say their food was around 2/5. I was disappointed in their cocktails. My party was 11 people and weall ordered different cocktails. Most of them were either gross or had almost no alcohol in them. We also ordered their fountaincocktail which is supposed to serve 10-12 cocktails but it was just juice and ice. When we asked the manager about the issue,they said that “I wouldn’t have ordered this drink”. We were shocked. The reason for my one star review is mainly becauseof the service and the manager’s attitude with our table. I am overall disappointed and I would not recommend anyone to come.I normally like Michelin recommended restaurants but this is not one. Do yourself a favor and go to the other amazing places inBrooklyn.
