    Absolutely loved both the food and the service! I called ahead to make a reservation, and the host was able to accommodate us on a Monday night with no issue. We were welcomed with a glass of champagne at check-in, which set the tone for a great evening. The white wine lamb chops, wings, Brussels sprouts, and rigatoni were all seasoned to perfection—every dish was packed with flavor and cooked just right. The food came out in a timely manner after ordering, and the service was attentive without being intrusive; the bussers promptly cleared our finished plates with a polite nod, keeping everything flowing smoothly. The spicy margarita was delicious, and the hookah added a relaxing touch to end the night. The decor was bright and modern, though the layout felt a bit convoluted and confusing at times. A nice bonus—the kitchen stays open until 11:30pm, which was perfect for our late-night dinner plans. Just a heads-up, a 20% gratuity is automatically added to the bill. Overall, a great experience with good vibes, flavorful food, and solid service—definitely worth checking out!

    The restaurant is absolutely beautiful—spacious, thoughtfully designed, and much larger than I anticipated. The atmosphere strikes a perfect balance between elegant and welcoming. Service was excellent; our waiter, Ben, was professional, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. The food was also very good, with well-executed flavors and quality ingredients. Overall, a great experience and one I’d be happy to repeat.
