Excellent food and service! Staff were amazing! There were street closures and horrible traffic so my friends were 40 minutes late but the restaurant was extremely understanding. It was for a birthday celebration and the restaurant had prepared a super cute birthday card with built-in light. I wish some of the food portions were larger. Wine pairing was fantastic! Occasionally a bit noisy. Lighting was a little strange where half of our table was much brighter than the other half. I will come back and I recommend!
