    Overall had a great dinner. There was a fire dancer this evening, which was super cool, and the food was very good. Our server felt inexperienced…he misquoted a bottle price on wine, had to double-check our order multiple times after leaving the table, and neglected to deliver a salad prior to the meal (and delivered the incorrect salad when it did finally arrive). The salad was corrected (after the entree was finished), and ultimately we received everything we ordered, but it made for a less than stellar dining experience. The concept of this restaurant is awesome, and we will be back to try again.

    Ambiance and service pretty good. Waiting time for food to be served very slow. My friend request was a petit filet medium and it was served well done and had to be turned back. Overall food taste was good.

    We were excited to try this place, but unfortunately, it didn’t meet our expectations. Despite arriving before our reservation time, we waited nearly 30 minutes to be seated. The servers were friendly and accommodating, but they seemed to be managing too many tables, which led to long waits—about 10 minutes—before they could return to our table. Dinner took longer than expected, and while the food was good, it wasn’t exceptional given the price point. One major disappointment was the lack of transparency regarding drink refills. Each small soda (around 6 oz) was charged separately, and we weren’t informed about this until the bill arrived. Overall, the experience didn’t justify the cost, leaving us unimpressed with both the service and value.

    Food tasted great however the portions were small for the price. My drink did not match menu pricing. Overall the food was good but the women’s food was late getting to the table
