    I went to have dinner with my wife and daughters as our last dinner together before our daughters returned to their countries and in my OpenTable reservation I let them know the occasion. The crew made it enjoyable and decorated our dessert to wish them a Bon Voyage. Truly enjoyed the detail, all of us were so happy!

    Having previously enjoyed an amazing brunch here, we decided to try dinner—and it did not disappoint! The Brussels sprouts are an absolute must, and the arancini from the specials menu were simply perfect. For mains, we tried the mushroom pasta, bolognese, and pork belly—each dish was flawless. The ambiance and service were on point, making for an exceptional dining experience. Highly recommend and will be returning soon!

    Went for the New Year’s Day Hip Hop DJ Brunch and it did not disappoint! Tried the housemade donuts (cranberry orange & espresso martini), and they lived up to the hype 100%! Seriously, if we weren’t so full, I would have taken a couple of the orange-cranberry ones to go! Then we had chicken & waffles and the pastrami hash. The chicken was incredibly crispy and the hash was delicious- lots of peppers & onions to complement the pastrami. Music was loud (we were right in front of the DJ) with some great selections! Service was excellent as well. We will definitely be back!

    Wendy, Thank you so much for your kind and detailed review! I am so pleased to hear that you enjoyed the donuts I will be sure to let our pastry team know! We are very excited to be having more live DJ brunches! Warm regards, Annie

    It was a lovely New Years dinner spot, the environment and visuals were beautiful, staff was so polite and the food was good! I recommend the Bruja Morada drink and the popover app.

    One of the most carefully curated wine lists within the area. There’s a great mix of classical appellations and producers, along with, highlights of new talent and fresh styles of vinification. A lot of credit to Scott, whose affability and knowledge can always be counted on. Ledger is the perfect pairing for a wine afficanado of any standing. Food-wise, I’m always a fan of the Tuna Tartare and the Duck. I also highly recommend whatever the seasonal desert is.

    Mihika, Thank you so much for your kind words and review! I am so pleased that you enjoy our wine list and Scott's knowledge. We look forward to seeing you again soon! Warm regards, Annie
