My boyfriend and I went for our anniversary dinner and we were not disappointed. This place exceeded our expectations and then some! The service was incredible, our waiter Andy was so attentive, and thoughtful. The staff was quick, efficient and just as attentive. They knew what we needed or wanted before we could even ask. The food was insanely delicious! Definitely our new date night spot!

Everything was great but coming to a restaurant where threres a lot of available seats and to be sat near the window and it’s freezing outside wasn’t ideal but I didn’t argue. That was my only takeaway. Besides that the food was good, the drinks were ok, as was the hookah. Ambiance and music was great.
