    Everything was so delicious. The octopus appetizer was so intricate and it was fun to taste and combine every element on the plate. The oysters were very good. I ordered the scallops and that was our favorite. My husband’s short ribs and filet were also amazing. The raspberry creme brulww? I can’t stop thinking about it. Gorgeous and it was so so good. Service was excellent, this will be our go-to date spot when we don’t feel like something new.

    We had the Valentines Day prix fixe six course dinner. It was awesome, and the options even worked for my vegetarian wife. The dishes are mostly traditional Mediterranean fare, but prepared with fresh high quality ingredients, and with subtle cooking skills. It’s hard to describe it beyond that. Service was excellent from the servers to the bussers.

    What a pleasant surprise!! We were looking for a last minute dinner and wanted to try something new. We were not disappointed and everything we got was progressively better. My wife had the sole and I had the risotto. Both were perfect. The warm octopus was amazing as a starter as well. We’ll definitely will be go back again
