    Food was tasty with complex flavors. Not too salty or buttery, etc. Grilled salmon was slightly crisp outside, tender and warm inside. Service was excellent, but server spoke too softly considering loudness of music. "The Kool" gin cocktail was refreshing and perfectly balanced. All four of us enjoyed our meals.

    Our food was absolutely delicious! Our waiter (I don’t remember his name sadly) recommended the penne allá vodka with chicken and it couldn’t have been a better choice. He was extremely attentive to us and made sure our water was always topped off. We were a little bummed when our dessert choice wasn’t available but we plan to be back later this week as it’s a quick walk from our hotel.

    It was ridiculously noisy during our dinner and I couldn’t bear for 10mins. Would definitely not recommend to anyone
