Food is always excellent along with the service! We would highly recommend the steaks, scallops and braised ribs. The desserts are phenomenal, as well. It is a MUST to sit on a balcony when the weather is nice but be sure to always make a reservation. Highly recommend for a date night or special occasion.

The food was excellent, service was A+. Atmosphere was less than expected for the price and extremely loud, with the tables too close together. Overall, good experience.
