    Exceptionally high quality experience! The staff is very professional and knowledgeable about the drinks and food preparations. They allowed us to move our reservation inside when the air got chilly. The service was on point and friendly. The food was AMAZING! The restaurant is donating this month a portion of their proceeds to a very important organization, the LA LGBT Center. I cannot think of anything they could do better—as a Chicago foodie, that evaluation should have some weight.
