Very interesting food choices, good drinks. Table was really sticky and we sat in the basement which was a little cold and felt isolated. Creme brulee was overcooked and watery. We had really high expectations but the food fell a little short. Staff was really nice and helpful. Seems like it would be a great place for large group. They need to figure out sticky tables, made the dinner very uncomfortable. It's expensive and I feel they should be held to a higher standard.
I really enjoy the food and atmosphere here. Our server was very friendly and made our evening very delightful and smooth. Our food came out quickly and we were able to enjoy all the different dishes. The mahi mahi tacos were our favorite. At this restaurant dont expect to buy an entree and eat just that. Each dish is meant to share and pass around to friends and share all the great foods and flavors. You will want to make a reservation ahead of time. Try something new and enjoy your food with friends!
Hostess stand had two extremely nice staff right as I walked in. They were also very accommodating when I asked to be seated at a different table than they selected. Waitress was wonderful. Food was phenomenal.
My dad I have came here a couple times have had the best time each time. The atmosphere is great, the staff is knowledgeable about the menu and spirited about their daily specials that change everyday but are amazing each day! The oysters are to die for Stephanie is definitely our go to waitress! She’s quick, helpful has excellent customer service. Will only dine with her!Can’t wait to come back again.
Super cool, and what I will call chic-elegant decor and ambiance. Amazing staff and service. And the food was outstanding. Had the Birria tacos, General Tso's cauliflower, and the fig and pig. The Taco's had great flavor in the birria, ultra tender, and the classic onion and cilantro toppings were the perfect touch. But the consume' put it over the top. The General Tso's cauliflower had that classic flavor you expect with just the right amount of spice. The sauce also was not over applied and the breading, despite being gluten free (thankfully) held up well with a nice crunch, but not overly so. The fig and pig was a masterful combination of flavors. The italian sausage was full of classic flavors, the bacon does what bacon does, and the fig jam pared perfectly cutting through the saltiness of the meat without being too sweet.
