Not sure what the hype is about for this restaurant. Highly disappointed. Very rushed and expensive. Food not very good. Bathroom set up terrible and could not see in stalls. Definitely would not go back.

Wonderful food and service. My only complaint is that you don't have alternative milk options.

One nof my favorite places to eat. The food is consistently beyond delicious. I absoluytely love the atmosphere, particularly around the holidays. But in general a very warm and inviting ambiance. The service is also very good, with professional and attentive staff. Overall, excellent customer experience

Had the chefs tasting menu. Charcuterie, dates w bacon and mushroom croquettes were great! The other dishes were not memorable except the paella which was burnt. The edges were charred, the rice was dry and cold. I was surprised they brought it to the table. Was happy I didn’t order it as my main. Was so full from the rest of the food that it didn’t matter as much. Ambience was great though and the service was on point.

The food was amazing and the service was great as well. Absolutely no complaints about this place until the bill came, they have a QR code system to pay on your phone. There were 4 of us and we all paid our portions. The manager then came up to us saying that the 5th person hadn’t paid that that we had $75 left on the bill. We told her look around there’s 4 of us and we all have proof that we paid the bill. Also if you scan that QR code again it says the bill is fully paid. The manager acted like it was our fault and kept us there for a while until they got it figured out. For a nice restaurant like this I feel like they shouldn’t have such a glitchy payment system.
