    Food was great. Service was just OK especially given that the restaurant automatically adds 18% gratuity to every check (and taxes it too). Ordered the tuna tartar and the chips that go with it came to the table 5 minutes later after most of it was consumed.

    Would have given 5 stars for service but they supposedly have a strange policy in which they only allow one drink per patron at a time at the bar. My friends were running late and I was not allowed to order them a glass of wine to be ready when they arrived. I found this a bit weird.

    Great atmosphere and good service! However, was really disappointed that the short rib quesadillas were taken off the menu. This was my favorite menu item and honestly the main reason I came. If you go to Yelp the short rib quesadillas are listed as the number one food item. Not sure why it was taken off the menu?

    Really loud, food was just ok, super overhyped. Though our waiter was really good, and the drinks were great.
