Excellent food, truthfully, I’m not a wine drinker but my companion did like her wine. It’s clearly very popular and extremely loud. I’ve been to two locations and the noise level was very high both times. But the food has also been great for all of us.

The bacon on bone was incredible. Perfectly cooked and while a pork chop is easy to dry out too much, this was not. Extremely flavorful. The meatballs were excellent. And their cocktails, particularly the Oof was as smooth as it gets. Will certainly be back. A great place in the heart of Ada.

Had a great experience. Great flavors, wonderful service. (Manny was fantastic). The steak was cooked perfectly, nice and tender, great flavor. The Beef Tartar as an appetizer had a great texture and flavor pallet with the truffle chips.
