All the servers were great and attentive. We were given great recommendations for what to get it being our first time there. We did end up ordering too much for us, but it was worth the try. The ambiance of the restaurant is chill and fun.

My branzino and my friend’s truffle pasta were excellent. Our appetizers were delicious and the waiter was very patient as it took us a long time before we were ready to order. He had to come back several times. The atmosphere is lively. I’d recommend it!
