    Food and cocktails were great! It was a little loud and the music (house/dance music) was an odd choice for a finer dining restaurant but honestly didn’t take away from the a good girls dinner and the food. I would 100% go back for the artichoke chops and the truffle brussel sprouts alone. The sea bass and the branzino were both amazing pieces of fish, and the steaks were cooked perfectly.

    This place at night is beautiful we did outdoor dining my man & I for Christmas Eve, I received a text earlier then my reservation time which was great, we got seated immediately. Our server came to us provided us with water and took our chose of drinks and explained certain dishes we had questions on, we ordered and appetizer came to our table at a reasonable time, we then ordered our entrees and food also came out at a reasonable time, our food was fresh and tasty. Took a walk inside this place is a gem, if your looking for a nice night out this is a place you should definitely try, looking forward on doing brunch one weekend.

    The service was amazing. The food was amazing. I had the shrimp and scallop risotto. It’s always excellent and we share the dessert of the crème brûlée bread pudding. It was the best I’ve ever had.
