    Great experience but was surprised with a sudden prix fixe menu that was not communicated prior by Opentable or the restaurant. Food was outstanding (highly recommend the Lobster & Short Rib) but would've appreciated a heads up.

    Enjoyable 4 course tasting menu for NYE 2024. Only complaint was spacing and timing of food. Often part of our table was eating while others were waiting. The portions were bigger than expected and the cocktails were delicious! Glad we chose Naisla for our family of 5 for last meal of 2024

    We have been here many times on previous trips and were so excited to come again. We spent 1 1/2 hrs for our food and our server did not check in with us often waiting for drinks. He made the excuse that it was the busiest night they have ever had but we have been there during busier times. We were just disappointed not having the experience as previous visits.

    They didn't honor my OpenTable reservation for a table. I don't think this place is the best value.
