    We were warned portions were small even though the food is meant to be shared. They weren't kidding. Service was so so, and it was very hard to hear what our server was asking or saying. Food was not good or high enough quality for the price we paid.

    Pretty good, not great. Several dishes very good, several too salty. Party noise level.

    This event was for four faculty members to congratulate on their recent promotion. The service and ambiance were exactly what they had hoped for!

    Birthday lunch. Restaurant was empty but the service, food & ambience were excellent… we were very happy because we liked the impeccable service & yummy treats in a peaceful quiet environment. Decor is eclectic and modern, they gave us a free birthday dessert too! We will definitely return :)

    Stumbled across this place before a show at the House of Blues. Amazing menu, very well executed - some Japanese, some Peruvian! Great cocktails and service, too.

    The food was not as memorable as when we ate there a couple years ago. Was disappointed in the hospitality- we had an early reservation, requested a seat inside and they sat us on the patio even through the restaurant was empty inside. Would not return anytime soon
