   The service and food were amazing! Our server was running the bar/dinner service by herself and still gave amazing customer service. She came by for several quality checks and refilled our beverages without us having to ask! She was very personable and made us feel like we've known her forever! On top of that, she gave us some really good recommendations for the menu. We will be back!

   Service was slow but the food arrived hot and plentiful. Not a fan of matchstick fries with fish and chips. The Caesar salad was tasty but the bolognese was underwhelming even with extra meat. I have to say the kimchi and pork dumplings were quite good. It was a busy Valentines Day evening. I don't think the kitchen was prepared.

   Took an hour to receive our appetizers and then another 50 minutes to receive our mains. Was on Valentine’s Day, 6:30pm reservation for 2 people. We didn’t leave until 8:50pm and had to cancel our 9:00 plans as it was too late to make it. I get some days are busier than others, but the service was horrible. There was no recognition on how long we had to wait. Maybe comp an app or our drinks or maybe apologize for the wait? None of that. We will not return.

   Nice establishment, loved the menu choices and waitstaff was knowledgeable fast and friendly The nachos were ok but the bottom layer completely stuck to wax paper , sent them back to get a new order and they were the same , I guess that’s the way they are , won’t be ordering them again Other than that 👍🏻👍🏻

   Service was slow. Some of the drinks we ordered did not taste good. They were also out of some menu items. The vibe was nice and the food was good.
