First time here. Perfectly tucked away at the back of Chido and Padres. It’s still decorated with the Christmas/holiday theme which was amazing. Great music going, extra friendly staff from the time you go in until you leave. Definitely a hidden gem for a unique experience. I got the Mistletoe Margarita, a little too tart and bland for me but presentation was great. Great energy Ave vibe here. Overall great experience!!

GK is one of my go-to restaurants when I have guests from overseas. Food and drinks are consistently great from starters to desserts, and cocktails and wine offerings. We also enjoyed their zero-proof mocktails as well. Service is good - not too much or not too sparse, just right. I look forward to returning here again.

Stations were excellent. Guest numbers did not overwhelm the system. Reservation system appeared to anticipate the volume and experience dictated the offerings such that the station offerings were always plentiful. Staff were excellent. My only observation would be the Grouper station.
