We had a party of eight we seated quickly and the service was amazing and the food was unbelievable. I would definitely return. I would love to come when it’s not a buffet, but the food was still Chef’s kiss.

I loved the ambiance and drink choices but it was too loud. A good level would have been under 80 decibels but having live music or from speakers in a small space requires some different efforts (mutes on woodwind or brass instruments or brushes on drums) and lowering the volume so that it isn’t deafening since it’s a small establishment

Came on a Friday night around 7, party of 2. Getting in was probably the “hardest”/ least smooth part of the process. We didn’t have reservations so had to wait a few minutes no problem. There was a party or 5 waiting to get in so I made a quick reservation and there were plenty of tables. When we were brought in, the bar was pretty empty making us wonder why the (albeit short) wait. The drinks were great, Toki was our bartender and her energy and knowledge will definitely bring us back!
