    I loved this restaurant. Will definitely return. Went for a date night before a show. It was fully booked. Noise level was moderate. Not loud but not quiet either. Didn’t have to scream my order to the server. Food was excellent and so were the cocktails. My only negative is the dress code. I wished they didn’t allow athletic wear - tshirts, sweatpants, hoodies; a collared shirt dress code should be enforced. Being a 5 star restaurant, the attire of the patrons should also be of 5 star standard.

    I had such an amazing time. The happy hour menu is filled with incredible options for awesome prices and the specialty drinks were delicious. But we also stayed for dinner. The lamb chops were perfectly cooked as well as the roasted salmon. The rice is undescribable but delicious. I had never had saffron rice like this before, and the herb saffron rice with the fish was paired perfectly. The custom cocktails were well balanced with the meals that we had. The staff was welcoming and willing to explain everything that we ordered. There was ample parking and just an overall perfect way to end 2024. lamb chops. Thank you

    Bashar and the Wren staff were incredibly tactful and considerate during my fiancé’s birthday dinner — the izakaya selections were superb and the ambiance was immaculate, especially when paired with drinks that reminded us of our appreciation for the artistry of bartending once more. I agree it can be cumbersome to reach, but it’s a minor gripe I can forgive such a gem in Tyson’s worth seeking all the same — thanks again for the birthday card!
