The atmosphere is 10/10!!! However, the food is very underwhelming. Everything looks amazing but lacks flavor. Like ZERO. Ordered 2 alcoholic drinks neither of which had a drop of the Tito’s it was supposed to come with. Our service was superb!!! Our waitress was so knowledgeable and attentive. Which is how my bill reached a total of $180 she made everything sound so delicious!! Overall, I would go back for pictures ONLY!!

So yummy! Starts with a salsa cart that comes to your table, and she makes fresh salsa to your liking. Everything was super flavorful.

This dinner was great, drinks was great…… only thing was that the smoke alarm went off several time during dinner, which interrupted conversation from time to time but an overall great experience. Definitely will return!

We had high hopes as we stepped into this beautiful historic but updated mansion. The ambience was great, though busy with parties on a Saturday night. Our table was not ready on time for our 6:30 reservation, so we sat down at the first floor bar. The wine list was solid and the drink menu interesting. Thought was given to presentation, though the bartender was slow, delivering one drink at a time to our party of 5. Once seated, the server came reasonably quickly and we ordered a number of different items from the menu to share amongst the table. At one point, a server came and took our order for hand mixed salsa made to our preference, but because we were in a smaller side room there was not the usually ‘mix it at your table’ interaction. But, the wheels fell off when, at 8:20 we still had not received any of our appetizer or main course items and the server was not helpful. After a quick talk with the manager saying we were ready to pay for our drinks and leave, we finally received all items about 10 minutes later. Unfortunately, they were all lukewarm. While the food was good, it did not live up to the price tags. Overall, we loved the concept of this unique restaurant, but the execution was disappointing. Hopefully they can up their game to deliver on this great idea.

The ambience of the establishment was amazing. Also, the service matched the food, which was exceptional. My husband and I enjoyed our double date with our friends.
