    The entire staff is top notch from the moment you walk in. The decor is beautiful. Out waiter John Paul was amazing and I will request him from now on. The food is Stupid Good 😉 and so are the drinks. This is a must place if you are in Dallas.

    The ambience in the restaurant was amazing. The service we received from start to finish was great. Our server was Christopher and manager was Brazil and they went above and beyond to ensure that my mom and I had a wonderful experience. They suggested entrée and drink items that did not miss. My mom had the salmon with curry and rice. She really enjoyed it. I had the crab fried rice, which was extremely flavorful. The drinks were great. I will definitely be visiting again soon with family and friends. The location was good. We’re able to park and get in and out quickly

    We LOVED this place!! So beautiful! We ended up sitting at the bar because we started out there. I didn’t get the bartender who waited on us name, but she was awesome. Spent so much time catching up with my friend that we didn’t eat a whole lot, but what we had was incredible. They also have some fun cocktails and a fantastic wine menu. It was super cold, but we still had to check out the view. Beautiful patio!
