I like the food, but it took 20 minutes to get some water, and 25 to order. The server was pretty apologetic. The food came in quick. But 30 dollars for two small glasses of cheap red Malbec seemed ridiculous plus a 15% surcharged for using a credit card…..

Very cool ambience with a nice bar area. The drinks are creative and the menu offers diverse options, but could use a few more veggie offerings. The servers work as a team and are friendly and attentive. I suggest large groups so you can sample multiple small plate/appetizer sharings. I plan to return!

Food was delicious and beautifully prepared. Best part was how quick it was so we could order and try new dishes throughout the night. Great place to enjoy a meal with friends, co-workers, or family.

The restaurant has a fun vibe. If you’re short like me, don’t sit at the high top tables. The chairs are not tall enough. The food was at best fair. The sliders were extremely greasy. Chicken Piccata had zero flavor.

Noise level is off the charts. Very difficult to have a conversation without nearly yelling. Food quality is average and the service was slow. Our waitress apologized 20 times for disappearing due to a large party she was taking care of at the same time.

Nice relatively new neighborhood place. Menu choices were nicely varied. We had the pork dumplings appetizer which was very good. Both entrees (pork chop and braised short ribs) were also very good. We will very likely return.

Mallory was our waitress, and she was outstanding. We had someone in our group with multiple allergies, and she went above and beyond to show her all the different options and combinations she could have. Our group ordered multiple items, and all of them were delicious. We would highly recommend this place.
