Enjoyed our meal here. Homemade naan, lobster potholes, and the black cod curry all great. Loved the playlist they had going and a nice wine list (and some good bourbons). Recommended.

Everything was delightful! Wonderful and attentive server, Kayla - awesome! The food was outstanding - beautifully prepared and presented. Drinks were excellent! Love the ambiance and added perk was the holiday decor which made the space even more welcoming. We had several noisy tables around us which was a little disappointing for our table. Overall, however, a great experience and wonderful vibe.
