It is permanently closed. I would have given it 0 stars if that was an option. No idea why Open Table would have closed restaurants available for booking.

Didn't care for the restaurant or the food. Owned by Hennessy's next door which is also undesirable. Did not give credit for open table reservation.

Was there for Mother’s Day. Th open table reservation I made was for 13, but there was some confusion when the first of my party arrived as to the number. We waited 45 minutes for our order to be taken, another 30 for food to arrive. My sister didn’t get her plate until most of us were done. We were comped party of our bill, but no one wanted to stay for dessert, which was a bummer for Mother’s Day.

Food preparation was disappointing. Pizza crust overdone, coconut chicken lacked coconut flavor. Specialty drinks okay.
