    I’m so impressed with the service. Our server was stellar. We came in to celebrate my mom’s birthday for an afternoon reservation. We had two kids and three adults. We did not order an alcoholic drinks or apps it wasn’t the right time for us. Our server was so professional, kind and hospitable despite this. He treated us with an amazing level of respect. We will absolutely be back and will encourage others to come for their service alone.

    I did not eat the food, so It is not a 100% accurate reading but it looked good, vibes were good and the dj was loud, nice spot to either start the night or if you stay in the hotel its a nice bar to hit.

    This is a 5 star experience! Our party of four tried four different cocktails, 12 different dishes and three desserts. Impossible to pick a favorite and impossible to select anything that was not exceptional. Additionally, the chef and team were super sensitive to serving any dishes that would be an allergy issue. So the food was glorious, the chef and team brilliant…yet the staff is what elevated the experience. From our two servers, their assistant, the sommelier and the front of house - one word - Brilliant. Best meal of the year winner
