Enjoyed the friendly staff and service. The ambiance is perfect with light music allowing guests to have conversations. Unique and incredibly delicious Salmon entree, my guests had lamb and chicken entrees and thoroughly enjoyed the flavors. Glad it is located in my neighborhood.

We had a big group and Santo easily sat all of us in a private room that was perfect. Food, drinks and service were amazing. Highly recommend stopping in if you are thinking about it!

Wrong app brought to table, no plates when apps delivered. Had to go request them. Drinks took a long time to arrive, salmon was very salty and overpriced, lamb chop was actually a drumstick and also too salty. Waitress was nice but difficult to hear. Would not return

I have eaten here before & it was delicious. This time not so much. Disappointed with the dumplings & the lamb shank had hardly any meat on it. I mentioned it to the waiter & nothing was done. Not a comment no credit which is NOT what I was looking for but the gesture would have been good customer service. The corn salad was soggy. So 😞

Some things were good but eh lobster ceviche and Ceasar salad was so salty it was not edible. The street corn, chicken and braised short ribs were good. Not sure I would go back.
