Calamari was chewy. Lobster absent from lobster and shrimp linguine, however, the sauce was tasty. Wings were great! Service was impeccable. Thank you Miquel.

Heard great things about this restaurant and couldn’t wait to try. We (2) showed up on time for our reservation and was seated immediately. We were given water and that was it! No one came back to our table! There was a table seated 10 minutes after us who were immediately greeted with water and conversation. We waited 25-30 minutes for someone to serve us and NO ONE CAME. The restaurant was not busy (Friday at 8pm). As we were walking out, the lady who seated us asked why we were leaving and tried to get us to stay. Too late.

The review does not allow me to give no stars. But I would give our dinning experience no stars.
In an empty resturaunt we were given the worst table.
The large staff and manger were just 5 ft away and talking over us.
The food was poor at its best and serrvice poor.
I never not lrave a tip but in this case I left $1 to make my displeasure known.

Excellent brunch menu! The service staff could be a bit more attentive, but no complaints outside of that.

After seeing great pics and video on social media, we thought to give it a try. Only ordered apps after all. Brussel sprouts lacked flavor; artichoke Crab dip was very fishy and thick; Mac n cheese was good but corn bread was hard and dry; calamari was ok. Drinks were good. Friday night and it was virtually empty. Very disappointing after the hype we expected.
