    Tasty food and good service—what else do you need? Yes, it is not cheap, but it is good for some life events. The mushrooms and potatoes were outstanding. Never tasted something like that.

    Food was absolutely fantastic! 5 star all the way. Service was moderately delayed throughout night- busy night (Valentines). Server did apologize multiple times. Server was pleasant and knowledgeable. Music was great lounge vibe and at right level. Price was excellent for a very high end meal! Looking forward to our next visit.

    We arrived a little early so we sat by the bar and had a drink. The bartender was very friendly. We chatted for a little while we waited for our table. Our server Tony was very pleasant. He told us about the specials and also gave suggestions on what were his favorites on the menu. We had the lamb chops for starters and it came with a mint sauce. It was well seasoned and delish. My husband had the shrimp special with the side of potatoes. I tasted the potatoes and it did actually taste like French fries. I had a fish dish with the Japanese sweet potato. The sauce the fish was in wasn’t that nice. I could taste the lemon which was nice but there was another flavor (I think a butter) that was a little off. My husband tasted my fish and said the same thing. It wasn’t bad just not tasty for me. The sweet potato was exactly that, sweet. It was good. Overall the meal was good and I enjoyed it. I had 2 glasses of wine. The wine was very expensive. I think if you’re just having a meal without any alcohol then the prices are pretty much average. I would recommend this restaurant. If I return I would try one of their steak dishes.
