    Just want to start off by saying the food was fantastic. However the cocktails and service could use some work. Happy to give more feedback if the owner wants it. I would wait a few months to check this new restaurant out while they iron out a few details.

    I was so excited to try out this new restaurant started by Kristin Jenkins who has proved herself with an outstanding restaurant here in my neighborhood of BH. (1928 Beacon Hill). I knew it would be great with her name associated with it and once again she did not disappoint. From the fabulous atmosphere/decor, to cool vibe, to the yummy drinks and of course the amazing food it was truly one of my favorite dining experiences. My friends couldn't agree more. We were all thrilled with our drinks made by Danny and the food prepared by the former chef of the Quinn. And the GM Dominic is great too! Thank you for a memorable evening. We will definitely be back! P.S. Can't wait for the rooftop deck to open - the views were amazing! Melanie Bertani
