   The service is good, but the food is not great. The food like flavor a bit overpriced and I would just go somewhere else if you’re looking for a nice dinner.

   We had a nice brunch experience on Mother’s Day. The food took a while to come out but it was delicious and the service was friendly and considerate.

   Not many vegan options. Had the vegan risotto and it was okay, but not great. Too fatty and rich . My friend had the flat bread, pretty big for one person, so I recommend sharing it. She also had the Caesar salad and it wasn’t special. Very overpriced, Especially for the quality. It was too windy to eat outside, my guess is it is often windy out there. Service was great though. Price and quality of the food is why I wouldn’t recommend this restaurant, and I would double down, if you are vegan, this isn’t the place for you.

   Well done! Our group kept changing size but the team took that in stride. The food was good, the service fantastic. The water view was a bonus!

   Our server Jian was amazing! He was humorous and kind and made our entire dining experience a memorable one! He went above and beyond and I enjoyed having him take care of us. I know this was no reflection of the restaurant experience however I feel that it’s worth mentioning that the valet experience was terrible. When we pulled up there was no greeting or offering of assistance. The attendant stayed behind the desk until I got out of the car and walked up to the podium for assistance. As this is the first experience where a hotel guest or restaurant patron is welcomed, this left a lot to be desired. Feel free to pass this on to whomever!

    Had a reservation for 12:30pm. But kitchen is close at 1:00pm. So we had to order quick. I requested and noted for a special birthday greeting but they did not do it. Had the brunch menu completed different from their website. Was a little disappointed did not see all the brunch menu I’ve seen in social media.
