    Service was amazing. Christina did an outstanding job at taking care of us. The food was OK some people my party got the steak and eggs for brunch. Some of the steaks were very tough. I got the croissant bacon egg and cheese. That was really good. The DJ for the Sunday brunch played no good music at all. I have no idea why he was there. They need a better DJ other than that overall it was a good time.

    Beautiful atmosphere! We went for Valentine’s Day and it was decorated with so much love! Gorgeous pop up bar in the front when you walk in the restaurant! The drinks were amazing and decorated so festive! We had the shrimp, escargot, the tuna and the mussels! All delicious! For dessert we had the molten cake- amazing! Just the right amount of sweetness! Followed by some cappuccino and espresso- a perfect end to a delightful night! Our server was so nice and very attentive and courteous and made sure we were enjoying ourselves! They got very busy as the night went on! The only thing we may request next time is to sit near the front only because it’s a bit more romantic and dimly lit offering a different atmosphere as well. But we will definitely be back and recommend!

    I made a reservation for brunch, fully expecting it to be busy. We were patient with the server, understanding that she needed time to take our order after acknowledging us. However, it wasn’t until we were ready to order that we were informed they had been out of Champagne for a while—meaning no mimosas were available. On top of that, they had also run out of Tito’s. Without blaming the server, I asked why management hadn’t instructed the hosts to inform guests of these shortages upon arrival or while we were waiting to be seated. She apologized, and we understood—but at that point, we simply got up and left. For an establishment that invests so heavily in aesthetics and a “posh” menu, this is unacceptable and frankly, embarrassing. This restaurant didn’t open last week; by now, they should have a clear understanding of their clientele and the level of demand they attract. Instead, this reflects poor management and a fundamental lack of knowledge in the food service industry, especially in the high-end dining space.

    I was so excited to try this place. It’s beautiful, good music, nice staff.. unfortunately the food is horrible. My lobster was under cooked and my seafood linguine tasted like chicken. My husbands rice was undercooked and his Caesar salad was well.. not a Caesar salad. We both didn’t finish our food. Such a shame a beautiful restaurant with horrible food. Lots of nice photo opportunities though. Unfortunately I will not return. It was a waste of a $200 dinner.
