From the point of arrival throughout the entire dining experience, everything was perfect! The House manager sat us promptly and offered complimentary champagne. The food was amazing, and our waitress was awesome- she was professional, knowledgeable, offered great recommendations, and was attentive throughout the evening. We tried 4 different appetizers and different entrees. Everyone enjoyed their food and the ambiance with music in the background made it a great experience! A $600+ bill- would gladly do it again! You definitely get what you pay for here.

I discovered this restaurant from Instagram. An influencer recommended as a hot new spot in MD. From the moment you walk in the door, I appreciated the vibe, the design of the restaurant, and the welcoming staff. I ordered an omelet w/ seafood - delicious (9/10). Our dining host (Telfie) was so nice! 😊 We had an opportunity to chat with him about the restaurant and some of the top dishes chosen by other customers. He was wonderful (10/10). I will definitely be back in to try out other items on the menu and maybe a drink :)
