    Best meal I’ve had in a long time. Super appreciated the waitress asking about allergies and having swaps ready for our seafood allergic friend. The vibe was exquisite. Beautiful wall paper and decor. I felt inspired not only by the food but by the ambiance as well.

    Went for Valentine’s Day with a curated menu. Food was great. Unique flavors. Food was very fresh, appreciated the paired wine flight flavors. Service was very attentive. Did feel a little rushed, food came very nice quick, it was a busy night, but we went early. 2 tabletop was small for all of the courses and wine flight, would have liked a little more space and for entrees to be spaced out a little more. Would go back. Shrimp cocktail was great, enjoyed the frijoles dip, tres leches was very good!

The service is impeccable, with friendly, attentive staff who make you feel right at home while delivering top-notch recommendations. The general manager even came by our table several times to chat with us and gave my husband and I complimentary glasses of Champaign! So cool!
