    We chose this restaurant because the ambience and menu looked great and there was a speakeasy in the basement. We went early hoping to have a cocktail in the speakeasy, it was closed so we sat at the bar. There was one bartender and he was hustling but it still took 20 mins to put in a drink order. Our table was ready 15 mins late, no big deal but we sat down and no one offered us water, acknowledged us or came to get an order. We sat there for 30 mins and no one came to our table. We ended up leaving. After 90 mins there we were served one glass of wine. It’s too bad because it has potential but they have to figure out there service issue.

    Tried the spicy crispy tuna, lumpia, bulgogi fried rice, and the pancit noodles. All super delicious. The black tea crème brûlée and the matcha cake were also super yummy. Our server Kahlif was really nice and delivered swift attentive service. Can’t wait to go back.

    Daniel was our waiter - very attentive and high energy. We were celebrating our daughter’s graduation and he treated her extra special. The food was great especially the Adobo Pork Fried Rice and the walnut Shrimp. Love the ambiance and decor. We will Definitely go back. Nice to have a delicious and unique option in downtown Aurora!
