    Great food but ordered two cocktails that were only partial pours (in an already smallish martini glass). Saw this is something others have been experiencing.

    Very good food and service in a large space with a casual but energetic vibe. The food is inventive. The service was attentive and helpful. A good place to dine out on a date, or with a group of friends looking for a good time.

    Was disappointed that the online menu did not make clear that that on weekends there is no full menu until after 3. Took a long time for the waitstaff to take our orders. Had to ask someone to get the waitress over.

    I liked the restaurant and my friend and I had not seen each other for four years, so lots of catching up to do. We were there for over two hours, but we were pretty rushed and at the end the server basically told that somebody else needed the table, but I would come back. It was just kind of annoying. And we didn’t finish our appetizer before our dinner came. There was definitely a feeling of rushing us out.
