    We opted in for the 4 course playlist menu. Food was great and paired cocktail were even better. The dessert course was the best pairing. Staff was incredibly friendly and didn’t rush the courses even though we were above our 90 min reservation. Small spot - a little loud but it was a vibe. Staff were picking records to play all night, I love the music theme.
