The menu is limited, but the food was delicious. The restaurant is located within the Virgin Hotel. There is an amazingly appointed semi-private room with a table for six at the corner of the restaurant.

Very mid! Food was good and used diverse spices that complimented each dish. Drinks and food was delivered slow. The ambiance was nice and we caught part of a live performance that was a great surprise. Valet needs more training on professionalism, for $30 to park more attention to detail was expected. Overall my experience was ok.

Service, could have been better. There was a lack of attention towards our table, when it came to the food and drinks. We constantly had to get up and go inside to ask for a drink, update regarding our food, or silverware. When the food arrived, it was very good. I strongly recommend the Wagyu burger.

Ordered the shrimps and grits and they were extremely spicy! Had to ask for more grits to try to cover up the spice, it didn’t work much. 2 of us ordered that and only 1 person sent it back which we both should have. The service was very good! The ambiance was awesome.
