    Great vibes, excellent service, and tasty food. Overall, we had a great time with our party of six. Food is a little on the pricey side for what you get, but that is to be expected for the quality and ambiance. Would consider to come again for special occasions.

    The ambience and service are the shining stars here. Food is very good but not sure worth the price. But hard to say anything bad because it was a very enjoyable night. Personally I’d save it for a more special evening than just an average night out. Even though it’s a very busy, loud and energetic place, our round booth table for six in the middle of the restaurant still felt very private.

    Always great service and food. We just know it is not a "dinner conversation " night. Noise level is very high . But worth it every time !
