A few work colleagues and I went for a nice dinner. They had a live performer, and the ambiance and aesthetic of the restaurant were so nice. Food was cooked to perfection. I will definitely be back.

Wonderful restaurant - great food and top notch service. Only concern was the super different wine ordering process/policy. The wine menu is only online via a QR code AND if you only want a single glass of wine, you literally have to filter through, ask, have them go check (assuming to see if you have a bottle or have a bottle open) . . . if that answer is no, you have to repeat the whole process. For a restaurant of this caliber, I would absolutely expect a more customer friendly process.

The food was delicious. I think my server may have been new. We waited 30 minutes for water after asking 3x. He was polite, but he definitely forgot any requests like water, lemon and paper napkins .
