The ambience of the restaurant was beautiful really nice very clean and modern. However, the menu was super limited, mostly appetizers and sides and even that was limited I would have liked a salad or two as an option. Even the entrée options was very limited. I was really looking forward to trying this restaurant out, so I was bummed that the experience wasn’t what I thought it would be the weight. Staff was very nice although I have a feeling we just forgot about our fish and then had the kitchen rush it we asked her about it. I think that if the owners revamped the menu, it would be a great place but I don’t think I will be returning. The food was delicious, but everything had a sweet undertone.
