    I dined here as a solo diner and usually you wouldn’t get the best service because the servers want larger parties, but this was not the case here. Zach made sure I was taken care of. This is a rarity as someone who travels a lot alone and has experienced the bad end of dining alone. I’ve had a few friends and family dine here when they visited and loved it so I’m glad I was able to get the same experience they had as a solo diner.

    Exceptional dining experience and first class service. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. I must say the bread was some of the best ever. My family raved about the pistachio bread a must eat. Our server was a gracious host and made the experience even better. Beautiful ambience and a must visit.

    Waited 10 mins once sat for server who informed us he was up until 3am the night before and apologized for the delay. Ordered some bread with the soup (we both ordered soup). Was not informed there would be a charge. Bread didn't show up at the table until after the soup was cleared and our main courses had arrived. We ultimately weren't charged when I said to take the bread away and we would not be paying for it. Waited a minimum of 10 minutes for refills on drinks (diet coke and iced tea). At this point we involved 2 managers. Was offered free dessert. My guest ordered. I did not. Finally got our refills and was told by 1 of the managers that he would "keep an eye on us". Why wasn't this done in the 1st place? Lots of apologies. Lots of "we're backed up". Not good. Food was ok. I have been going to this restaurant since the day it opened, literally. This experience unfortunately tells me what direction it is headed in the future.

    My steak was burnt and not a premium filet cut. Sushi was better than the steak but not great. Calamari was good. Bumped in the head by staff changing table. They apologized but ridiculous. Drinks were horrible. The name eventually will run out on this place. Expected better
