This restaurant is a golden nugget hidden in plain sight. From the outside you’d have no idea how big the restaurant actually is. The atmosphere is perfect, a downtown vibe with a nice calming element. Staff were excellent and the food. The food was utterly incredible. We each had the ribeye cooked rare and I hands down believe it to be one of the best steaks I’ve ever eaten. For a Christmas Eve, our waiter was brilliant and I cannot fault the establishment enough.

So you’re not actually reserving a table on this app. You’re just securing your entrance. The cover fee is 20 a person and we realized we weren’t actually going to have a table once we got there. It was packed with people, and there were hardly any available tables (which are first come first serve apparently) because of course the people that arrived earlier hadn’t left yet. Food and drinks are pricey, although very tasty. There are two levels and both are decorated nicely and lean into the nostalgia of noche buena.
