    For me this was my perfect dining experience. Mood lighting but bright enough to read the tinniest print on the menu. Interesting menu options but not too out of left field. Good portion sizes but not too big where I couldn’t finish my plate. I left feeling stuffed and happy. Everything felt thoughtful and well cared for. I had almost lost hope in dining in NEO but after last night it’s good to know there are still restaurants that give a damn. Also shoutout to our server Bryan, he complimented me on mostly finishing my plate like a mother complements her well eating baby.

    Loved the food, appetizer, dessert and cocktail. We got great service. The only thing I would say is that if there was music, the volume was too low. Also, I would appreciate cloth napkins with the style of food you are offering at dinner. Little details make the experience.
