    Amazing experience. Food, service, drinks, vibe 100/10. Really great food and big portions. Worth every cent. Biggest takeaway of the night was how happy the staff seemed. The staff seem to enjoy their job (as much as you can enjoy a job). They were so nice, polite, accommodating, friendly, and attentive. You could just tell they are treated well and respected by their managers. You’re going to want to tip well because of how amazing the food is and how amazing the staff is. Overall a welcoming environment with food you’re going to think about for a while afterwards. Can’t wait to go back. Thank you, Atalia!

    My wife I went on a Friday night. The server Marco was outstanding. The food was awesome and be sure to get their bread service (yum)! Cocktails were also on point. I had a great Manhattan and she had an Expresso Martini which she liked so much she had 2 of them. Highly recommend you check this restaurant out!!
