The food was incredible and the staff was very kind and attentive, but the dining room is very small and we were seated in the very back - even with a reservation far in advance - stuck between a table for 6 and a flimsy partition separating us from the restrooms. We kept getting bumped and couldn’t move comfortably. Aside from the space constraints and being seated next to the restroom with gnats, everything else was a pleasant, enjoyable experience.
