    The food is good, but the prices are over the top and the ambiance could be better.

    A couple of very good dishes ( beets and broccolini) and a couple of pretty mediocre dishes (eggplant crostini and arugula salad). Loud 80s music made it kind of hard to have conversation.

    This was the perfect place for a girls' night. The staff took great care of us and felt like they were part of our girl group without being intrusive. And the food was absolutely amazing. A huge thank you to Min, Andrea, and Alina for taking such great care of us! We can't wait to come back.

    The food was fine. Everyone at my table enjoyed their dishes. The service charge was automatically added to our table of 4. Because of this I don’t think the waiter feels the need to be attentive very much. We were never asked if our food was ok or if we needed anything. Found street parking close to the restaurant. Glad I tried it but not in any hurry to go back.
