Enjoy the "outstanding" service and vibrant atmosphere, especially with outdoor seating. Highlights include the "OPA Chips" and creative cocktails. While occasional service delays occur, the overall dining experience is exceptional.

Friendly staff. We were seated along the wall and the seats were all mismatched, and the banquet seating was a little low. We went all out and got appetizers and entrees plus four excellent cocktails. Everything was delicious. $225 for four adults and we took home leftovers. The only drawback, it was too loud to hear across the table. We ended up with sore throats from having to shout comments. It was the day before Thanksgiving and very busy.

I want to publicly compliment the management for their handling of our dinner party last night. We arrived on time for our reservation. However, the restaurant was full and it took over 20 minutes before we were seated. Not a huge deal, it happens, though there really isn't a comfortable waiting area / no seats and we were a bit annoyed. The food and service once seated were great. Then they surprised us with two complimentary delicious desserts to make up for the delay. We appreciated the gesture and will return in the near future. Thanks!

My dinner companion had the lamb shank which was excellent! The noise level was extremely loud so I could barely hear my dinner companion during our conversation. The service was excellent as well. I will definitely return but hopefully find a quieter time to visit.
