    Great food, very cool environment. Had a wonderful time there with two clients of mine. Loved the variety of food, and the drinks were outstanding. The only issue is that it was a little cold at the bar. But when we move to a table. The temperature was fine.

    I took my mom there last night for dinner. We are from Chicago and are no strangers to good food and Michelin-starred level dining. This was hands down one of the best meals we've both had in a long time. Get the hangar steak and lamp chops. The avocade labneh and hummus were beautiful too with locally sourced crudite. I also had the scarpinocc which was one of the best pastas I've ever had (even compared to what I've tried in Italy itself). We couldn't believe this place didn't have a michelin star yet but suspect that will change by the time we come back again. Next time we are in San Diego, this is the first stop we are making.
