    Thank you for making my boyfriend’s birthday an excellent experience. From the service to food, everything was incredible. The host was accommodating, the bartender was very friendly and made good suggestions, and our server was also very helpful and knowledgeable. My only critique was food did not come out in “courses” as we had requested, instead, it came out randomly and we were not sharing all the items. The cocktails were my favorite part of the experience. The food was good, but not the best I’ve had, especially the wagu came out cold and I wasn’t expecting that.
