    The food was excellent and the waitstaff was knowledgeable, friendly and attentive. If it wasn’t for the elbow to elbow seating and super dark setting, I would have rated my experience a 5 star.

    Excellent service and food! Every dish was so flavorful, and the portions were spot on. Fiona was extremely knowledgeable and guided us through our first dining experience. The tables are quite close together, but it was still an intimate setting. Would highly recommend as a date night spot!
