    The dining experience was 5-star from start to finish. The hostess, Claire, was welcoming and friendly. Our server, Morgan, was on top of things and made our dining experience perfect. The salmon was perfectly cooked and the cocktails were delicious. We will be back!

    Had an amazing and intimate dinner with my wife while visiting Greensboro at this absolute gem. Sam and Savannah took amazing care of us and made wonderful suggestions. All of our dishes were super tasty and as a Ribeye connoisseur I can say this is one of the best quality ribeyes I’ve ever had not to mention it was cooked to perfection. Had the “Manila Sun” a tequila cocktail with a vanilla rim….. absolute genius. My wife enjoyed the “Harvest Moon” a gin cocktail with basil, plum and ginger beer, she loved it, refreshing and balanced. Very well crafted wine list with a huge price range for every budget. We started with Filipino BBQ Pork Skewers and Fried Oysters yummmmm. Finished with Pecan Tart with Bulleit Bourbon Ice Cream 😊 Look forward to having their Smoked Jerk Duck Leg on our next visit.
