The "feed me" menu is a standout, praised for its variety and portion size. While the atmosphere can be lively and "noisy," attentive staff and "unique cocktails" enhance the overall dining experience.

The serving sizes were also very small for the prices listed. Heard good things but left unimpressed by the poor service.
