    Chef’s kiss. The food was chef’s kiss, the drinks were chef’s kiss and the service was chef’s kiss. We did a Sunday set menu deal and it was so yum. I loved how the set menus were all hand written and how unique the dishes are. I am hoping to return again soon and try out another Sunday set menu. 11/10 experience. Will be recommending to all the girlypops. Thank you!
