    I took my wife here for Valentine's Day. The manager's chaotic energy completely ruined the vibe. She was just shouting in this small restaurant constantly, drawing everyone's attention to her almost making a scene. The food was incredibly overpriced and the service was terrible. The first "course" was kettle cooked potato chip the size of a quarter with a miniscule amount of caviar. They completely forgot to bring our second course. We had to ask about it and the second course was eventually served after we had already eaten about half of our main. The second "course" was what tasted like a King's Hawaiian roll with a bit of herbed butter with a very disappointing salad. The mains were decent, but there was absolutely no presentation. The service was also really bad. Empty plates stayed on the table for far too long, the server never introduced themselves, and they pretty much just slopped the plates down on the table and walked away without saying anything. This costs $145 per person by the way.

    Manger was squawking orders to staff over my shoulder the whole night. She was clearly on something the way she frantically managed and continually grinding her jax about. Food was wack and people were sat way too close together

    We had a table in the back room where is a bit more quiet and we could enjoy a calm time in the room. Food and service were excellent as always. Love this place.

    I have been here before a few years ago and loved it, however, the food is not a good as it was my last visit. My husband and I ordered the tuna crudo and arugala salad to share, he had the risotto and I had the mussels. The risotto and the fries that came with the mussels were overly salty (the mussel broth was salty as well), the salad was overly drenched in dressing, very greasy. I think that these things could be greatly improved if they used 2/3 less salt and 2/3 less dressing. Seafood in general does not need that much salt. The ingredients seemed a quality standard but were ruined by heavy handed seasoning and dressing.

    An incredible anniversary meal. Wish we could have ordered 5 other items on the menu, there were so many great things to choose. Such a beautiful restaurant and the staff was the best we have had in a long time. Our waiter at times was hosting, serving us and even making drinks at one point, all without missing a beat. We left just blown away by the service, ambiance, and definitely the food.

    About half of the oysters had no brine like they were shucked and rinsed. Only table in a Friday night, sad…. Beautiful restaurant and excellent staff.

    The service was horrible, and they took her food and drink before we were finished. The food was average, but not for the cost. We will not be going back.
