    Amazing! Delicious! 10/10 We came for brunch and everything was phenomenal. The squid ink seafood risotto was spectacular! The bacon wrapped dates, flank steak, garlic shrimp, bacon wrapped dates were great. And of course the sangria flights were exactly as they should be: full of flavor and potent!

Excellent starters and small plates Wine and liquor: a great wine list that has some seriously great finds served with care and a great cocktail list to start or finish your night. Service: consistency is key, we enjoy coming back because there are so many familiar faces which really helps put you at ease with your dinner. The meal is timely and well attended.
