    Got sat outside and was blown around with the wind Not one dish jumped out as delicios. The food was meh at best and the experience was equally forgettable. Event decor was extremely cheap and tacky and catered towards only fans influencers. For the cost - at least one thing should be excellent - food, ambiance, experience. None were. Wait staff and team were great. Not their fault that the experience was forgettable.

    Phenomenal Valentine’s Day experience. Thank you to the whole team - from the hosts to the runners, and especially our server Jed and the chef for making this a memorable holiday dining experience. The menu was divine. Plus beautiful florals + live music!

    Was very surprised to see how small the entrées were. The appetizers were actually the same size or larger portions. I would not recommend going there if you were hungry. The vibe and ambience was pretty good though. The service was very good as well.
