    Celebrated a birthday here. The host/Owner Valentine was very accommodating. We were able to sit even though the full party wasn’t there. The staff attentive. The food was delicious and large portions. I would recommend checking it out.

    I like that the restaurant was low-key, but the prices were kind of steep for a very downplayed environment as well as food that, while good, left much to be desired. My husband and I shared chicken dumplings for the appetizer and it was a 7/10 on the taste meter. For entree, I got the branzino fish and my husband got the steak frites. Again, good but not great. Perhaps if the prices weren't so high, it wouldn't have been as disappointing. The waiter was congenial and great. Overall, it wasn't a bad experience by any means, but the food was not worthy of the prices, so therefore, we probably won't be coming back.

    I recently dined at this restaurant, and overall, the experience was enjoyable. The food was flavorful and well-prepared, and the music and atmosphere created a vibrant and fun vibe. The DJ added a nice touch, making it a great spot for a celebration or a night out. I made a reservation in advance and noted that it was for a birthday celebration. Upon arrival, the hostess promptly seated us without any wait, which was appreciated. However, the service left a bit to be desired. Midway through our meal, a larger party of over 10 people arrived, and it seemed like the restaurant may have needed our table for them. Rather than offering us dessert or acknowledging the birthday, the hostess immediately placed the check on our table as soon as we finished our meals. It felt rushed and dismissive, especially considering the occasion. Additionally, instead of discreetly placing the check in the center of the table, she put it directly in front of the birthday guest, which is generally not considered best practice in service. While the food, music, and overall ambiance were fantastic, the service could have been more considerate. I would still recommend this restaurant for its great food and lively atmosphere, but I hope they improve the guest experience, particularly for special occasions.
