    One of my fav neighborhood spots that has great value, great flavorful food, and good ambience. They close early and can get crowded sometimes so always try and make a reservation vs just showing up. Unfortunately this evening they were out of a few things I wanted to order but with a great menu it’s rarely too much a disappointment as I’ve never had a dish here I didn’t enjoy. Don’t let the hipster yuppies know about this place, TikTok! Keep it chill.

    I went here for Valentine's Day and the experience was fabulous. The attentive service was superb and the Filipino lady who greeted us was so friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed the chicken sandwich, one of the better sandwiches I've had in a long time. Also, the Korean steak had lots of flavor and was delicious. We ended the meal with the lava cake which added the perfect touch. Of course, we will be back again! Thanks for the great meal!

    This is a local wine bar owned by lovely and gracious people. Low-key and located in a neighborhood setting, it's the perfect place to grab a bite and a nice glass of wine.
