Amazing dinner! From the drinks, the amazing rolls, the Caya salad, lamb shank, brownie all exquisitely prepared. Amazing deal now $69 for 3 courses and glass of bubbly. This was the best all around. Some people have complained about the way they add the tip to the bill and then ask if you want to add more, I guess that was a little annoying but since we were paying $69 each for an amazing three course meal we were happy to add more.
