Date night was great! The food was spectacular as was the service. Started with Greek salad, grilled calamari with squid ink which was out of this world! Then 6 huge langoustines that couldn’t have been better! Banner meal for sure, great drinks and Dimitri the manager couldn’t have been nicer and engaging. Love this place for the food, atmosphere and vibe. Just don’t forget to bring your wallet!

Easy to make a reservation and we were seated promptly. Waiter was lovely-explained all the choices and stepped away when we needed more time. We were not rushed. The restaurant is busy and loud. The decor is beautiful. Every dish, from appetizer to dessert was presented well, fresh and DELICIOUS.
