Amazing dinner. Had a reservation (strongly suggested). The sat us quickly. The service was a bit slow. However, it was Dec. 25 and the restaurant was very full. We assumed the service was slow based on staffing. Be patient because the food is worth the wait. Very authentic and delicious food. Four stars vs five starts because of the wait time. Otherwise, an amazing five stars.
