    This restaurant is an absolute gem; five stars truly don't do justice to the incredible service, stunning decor, and delicious food. Our server, Gideon, was attentive, friendly, and made us feel genuinely welcome. His outstanding service stood out and deserves recognition. The atmosphere is romantic and inviting; I especially loved the lush, tropical vibe. Every corner of the space felt calm and relaxing. The food? Oh wow. Everything we tried was absolutely delicious-packed with flavor and creativity, with unique combinations that just worked beautifully. The drinks were solid, with a good alcohol pour that felt worth the price. Plus, they’re happy to craft custom cocktails if you ask. A great spot for both foodies and cocktail lovers!
