    Everything was great except we were informed at the door that they no longer offer special hour pricing. However we saw the special price during booking and made efforts to arrive early for that.

    Overall it’s a great value. The service,food, and ambiance justify the price of the food. I feel like that’s rare these days. The restaurant is beautiful. staff is on it and super nice. I wish I could Remeber our servers name so I could shout him out but I came on 12/27 7:30 and sat in a red booth. Maybe I’m weird but I love a nice restroom at a restaurant. This one is very clean and pretty. The thick napkin hand towels are luxe. Food came out fast. The after dinner coffees were amazing. The same price as a boutique coffee shop but actually good! My one critique- Although I enjoyed the playlist, I’m not a fan of loud music in an intimate setting. The base was extreme and felt like it was rattling the table.

    My husband and I made a reservation for inside and they sat us outside on the patio. The table was very uncomfortable especially the tiny metal chairs with little cushions. My husband is 250 pounds and could hardly sit in it without his legs touch the underneath of the table. They had a door open right behind us and it was like sitting in a wind tunnel. My drink that I always order usually comes with black salt and it makes the entire drink and it came with normal white salt which made the drink taste completely different. My husband didn’t touch one bite of his food bc of how uncomfortable he was and the server never even bothered to ask if everything was okay. We boxed everything up and skipped dessert (which is normally my favorite part) paid our bill and left. So unfortunate because we normally Love this place !

    We tried a little bit of everything, only two things were left in the plate - a little too salty, but other than that, we had an amazing time. Our waiter Carlos was quick, and funny, and made the trip enjoyable Definitely going back
