    I wasn’t able to leave the food blank, but we didn’t even stay to try the food, ignore rating. We came for happy hour, and what were used to is that you could enjoy happy hour anywhere you want, but we showed up and weren’t told anything so we were seated normally. Waited 15mins for someone to come to the table - to which we asked about happy hour (because there was no special menu on the table) and then we were told it’s only in a specific spot of the restaurant and we had to seat ourselves. We moved to that section and waited another 10 mins for someone to come up to us. No one seemed to want us there, we decided we would have one drink and then leave. The drinks were not good. Their happy hour menu was definitely great deals, we wish the place lived up to the hype but it was a flop. Went down to el Camino instead.

    Birthday dinner with the family. Several staff stopped by the table to wish my son a happy birthday. the presentation for the Tomahawk steak was superb, as was the taste and flavor! The cocktail menu was diverse and the non-drinkers at my table loved the spritzer mocktails.
