    We visited Ossobuco for the second time, and without hesitation, we requested Mayra as our server because she was exceptional during our first visit. This time, we were celebrating a birthday, and we couldn’t have chosen a better place. From the moment we arrived, the service was flawless—Mayra was attentive to every detail, with a warm smile and kindness that made all the difference. The food was, as always, delicious and beautifully presented. The drinks were incredible—well-crafted and full of unique flavors that impressed everyone. The atmosphere was cozy, and they truly made the celebration special. We’ll definitely keep coming back and recommending this place to everyone!

    The Den Signature Omakase experience was nothing short of extraordinary—a true journey through flavor, artistry, and exceptional hospitality. From the very first bite to the last, each course showcased a beautiful balance of creativity and precision, leaving us in awe of the chef's attention to detail. The highlight for me was undoubtedly the mouth-watering tuna, which melted effortlessly on the tongue, offering a burst of rich, delicious flavor that lingered beautifully. Each dish was thoughtfully curated, with combinations that felt both creative and harmonious. It wasn’t just food; it was an experience that engaged all the senses. Beyond the food, the comforting service elevated the evening. Every staff member exuded warmth and knowledge, ensuring we felt at ease while guiding us through the menu's intricacies. It’s clear that this team takes immense pride in their craft. If you're looking for a flavorful and unforgettable culinary adventure, The Den is a must-visit. Each plate tells a story—one that you’ll be craving to relive long after the final bite.

    It was a really cool experience. The life band was out of this world, very talented. The food was good too. I ordered a drink that I did not like and when I return it, they said they will still charge me is the only thing But it was a fun experience overall.
