    2nd visit. Not as good as the first. Moving chairs around upstairs in event room was distracting. Service was not as prompt. Not as professional as first visit. Food was good but Luke warm. Probably won’t go back for awhile.

    This was overall a huge disappointment. The ambiance feels like a Mexican all inclusive, cheesy venue. The light is too bright and there’s a huge, wall sized tv screen that had a fake fireplace scene. There was only 1 server for the entire restaurant and she was short with customers and would scream at the kitchen staff, which made it very uncomfortable for people. Water was not refilled. 2nd drinks were not offered. Food was subpar at best. Temperature was off. My salmon was bland and the vegetable medley underneath was refrigerator cold and did not match the Menu descriptions. Rack of lamb came out at burnt lamb chops. Grilled octopus did not seem fresh at all and I was truly scared to eat it. Not sure if this is a family run operation, but an older couple in an adidas track suit/stretch pants was serving dishes and circulating around the room. The chef did offer to reheat my dinner but it was not even worth the trouble. For a prime location in Bexley, our expectations were too high, I guess. And we learned that there was a reason they had same day reservations on Valentine’s Day weekend, while no one else did.

    The food was delicious but it was a very odd experience. I think the majority of the employees must be related and it's hard to describe the atmosphere but it felt a little like we were eating at a fancy table in the middle of their living room. Like, I would not have been shocked if the cook decided to take a quick break by reclining at the table next to us playing candy crush at full volume on his phone while our server politely told us it would just be a few more minutes.

    Not a good experience. I took my wife her for a surprise Valentine's Day dinner. We walked in, heard live music with a big screen that displayed winter scenery. So far so good. The menu presented said Valentine's couple din er $50.00. Then said 1 choice per appetizer, entree and dessert....1 choice per couple., ie. We had to "share" our choices. Ok sid not see this adverised any where. oh, ok...they didnt say that in the description. So that was fine, IF they give you enough for two people to share. Which by looking at the dishes coming out, they did not. So we ended up paying $100.00 for 2 meals. Our appetizer was very late coming out....the waitress apologized and said the owner gave it to his friends that were dining there! WHAT!?? We then noticed a totally different menue offered to the owners friends. Lamb, pasta, huge salad, tiramisu dessert (we had a choice of 3 types on the Valentine menu). We asked the waitress *(who was very nice). She apologized. We figured that since the the other table were friends of the owner thwy were allowed ro choose what theybwanted from a different menu ( not right). Maybe thts why our food was so late coming out.The waitress apologized agai again and again. No fault of hers. The owner never came around to speak to his customers. Just talked to the special table with his friends. The food was "ok" but for that price and the lack of choices and courtesy, we will not go there again. To the owner: NEVER flaunt special treatment to friends in front of paying customers and treat those paying customers with less courtesy simply bc they are not your "friends." It is your paying customers that keeps your restaurant in business...not simply the people you know.

    The cuisine is interesting and plated beautifully. We visited on Valentines Day which was probably busier than usual. The filet carpaccio and beet salad are great starters. We also had the lamb and the filet mignon which were delicious. Service was friendly, but bussers were not available so our server had to do most everything except run the food. This is a family owned and operated restaurant with a loyal following. The owners are charming and gracious.

    The most horrible experience. I went with a group of friends for “gal-entines” day. There was a pre-fix menu, with a VERY small selection! This menu was not advertised when we made the reservation! Honestly, that would have been fine, but we were forced to eat out of the SAME bowl. That would be gross if I were with the love of my life! Plus, the 7 noodles in the 1 pasta bowl was not enough to feed a small child. For $50, it was ridiculous!!! And the atmosphere was completely cheesy with strobe lights and heart lights bouncing off the walls. So, so disappointing!!! No wonder there were so many open tables!! Bad, bad , bad!!
