   Firstly we where sat right next to the speaker for the “band”. Loud and uncomfortable not the ambiance we where looking for. Then we sat where the server was non existent. There was qr code for a menu I personally don’t like those. Appetizer cam out and it was good nothing to write home about we asked for something to dip it in and by the time we got it we where done. When (I repeat) when our food came out my wife was served 1st (small portions,) then we ordered A side of rice it came out late and cold. The server said 3 min till my dish came out and about 15 min later they said it will be ready in about another 2 min. So no food for me We asked for our bill ( my wife was done with dinner,) I told them to take my food off the bill and we will pay for what we consumed . Well surprise my food came! How convenient, This place sucks and the experience ruined our night we try to go to a different restaurant every so often but this place is one and done. Oh! Here’s the kicker they had the audacity of putting a 20% tip on the bill.. My advise.. get dressed up and go somewhere else. Steer as far away as possible from this place.

   I had high hopes for this restaurant, but unfortunately, my experience was disappointing. We had a 7 p.m. reservation and were informed by the hostess that we had a two-hour limit, which was totally fine. However, the service was painfully slow—it took over an hour just to receive two appetizers and a round of drinks. By the time we paid, it was barely 8 p.m., yet the hostess (a black-haired lady) came over and rudely told us our time was up and that we needed to start packing up. Mind you, we had barely gotten our food in a reasonable time, but we left anyway because at that point, we had no interest in staying any longer. Food? Just okay. Drinks? Also okay. Nothing special. Our waitress was hardly around, but to be fair, she seemed overwhelmed, so I won’t blame her too much. The real issue was the rude hostess, who completely soured the experience. With so many great restaurants around, I don’t see a reason to return here. Service should match the prices they charge—this place failed at that.

   It was a wonderful experience and an amazing dinner in an atmosphere that reminded us of Eastern Europe.

   As a group of 6 we tried quite a few dishes. Every single one of them was eaten. It was a truly delightful experience. Highly recommend. Especially if you want some live music.

   We first tried this excellent food during a trip, and when we returned, we looked online and found this superb restaurant. Last night was our second visit. Both times, we came with another couple who were as impressed as we had been. The choices are varied, the portion sizes are perfect, and the quality of each dish is excellent. We have already planned o introducing our grandchildren to this restaurant when the visit in a few weeks.

    If you’re not a fan of karaoke, the noise level can be really annoying.
