The entire experience was simply unforgettable, and the decor was absolutely stunning. It’s a place I’ll definitely be raving about and coming back to

    Excellent food and service! The best entree of the table was the chili honey salmon. Even the sides were good (smoked carrots, broccolini, mashed potatoes). Bread appetizer was so good we ordered a second one. A lot of dishes had spicy flavors or a spicy kick to it. I was a little underwhelmed with the prime rib sandwich. For dessert we tried the wild berry sorbet and tres leches cake. The cake was tasty but not quite dense enough for all the liquid and the sorbet was delicious and refreshing, generously garnished. All in all we had an excellent experience.

    Delicious lunch ! I had the tuna tartare, shrimp fettuccini and crème brûlée Everything was amazing ! The fettuccini is unique, not your typical cream sauce , which I thought was amazing , but just know that. The portion was large as were the shrimp ! Crème brûlée was truly some of the best I have ever had , highly recommend it!
