    Great food and service! If you follow their emails you can get meals that are "specials" for short periods of time that aren't highly promoted in restaurants or on the menu. The location is good, they have valet parking right there and it's actually less than paying for some of the garages that are next to the building. I like the fact it's not a huge restaurant; it's cozy and relaxing. The bar serves great drinks as well.

    The food, service and ambience were phenomenal! Our server was kind, courteous and professional and his timing was impeccable. He knew the menu well and offered insight on the menu items. Our party of four enjoyed each selection. The serving sizes were generous. We enjoyed a lovely evening with Oleum and will definitely be returning.

    We picked copper shark for our 8th anniversary and it was amazing! Everything from the vibe, to the service, to the food was on point, they even wrote us a little happy anniversary sign on the table! Kennedy was our server and was super sweet and knowledgeable about the menu. Drinks and food all came out quickly. Try the smoked cocktails- the presentation in a little smoking leather chest was incredible! We tried the whipped ricotta app with house baked bread and could bathe in it, it was so delicious. We split the tomahawk steak and duck bolognese pasta, both amazing and plenty to take home. How did I not know they make homemade pasta daily!? So hard to find around here and now that I know, can’t wait to come back regularly. The manager even came to say hi, he seems like such a great guy and truly cares about the quality of food and service that they offer, this really sealed the deal about how awesome this place is! Thanks for making our anniversary special, we can’t wait to come back and try the whiskey flights next time!
