    A little slow on the service when we arrived as it took about 15 or so minutes for anyone to come take drinks orders. Food was great

    The quality of the Steak was good but the sides were very basic and beige. No fresh vegetables like broccolini to compliment the steak. Toasted bread that came with our burrata entree was burnt. Highly Disappointed, especially given the price.
