   The food was delicious and a very well done fusion. I would only prefer it slightly less salty. We found good wines to pair with the food and the dessert. The service was excellent. The place was elegant, but could have had a little more personality. Overall, an excellent restaurant.

   3 tables were seated for dinner. It was my first time to eat at this restaurant and no one offered to explain the menu. Staff was curt and inattentive. One table was so loud I couldn’t even carry a conversation with the person I was seated with. Will not be returning. Food was less than average and way overpriced. $5.50 per fried oyster?

   Unusually underrated. This place is quite the find. We popped in on a Fridau evening before the symphony and enjoyed some of their greatest hits. The pancake was fiercely delicate and a perfect starter for the savory dishes. Our table split the short ribs, the wagyu flank and the fried bird. The last two are MUST ORDER material. Flawless service, considered environment and a serious culinary attitude. Be an Underdog. Get your butt here!!

   Underdog is a hidden gem that should be way more popular than it is. The food is great (Korean inspired) and the wine/service is impeccable. They are always open to letting you taste some wines before deciding, and the staff are so knowledgeable and kind. You can get parking validated in the garage below, too. Highly recommend! Get the sourdough pancake and the Silvana dessert. So good.

   People are amazing. The space and ambiance are ok. The food was good but it didn’t make me want to come back for round two.

   Outstanding food. The steak tartare, grilled oyster, and donut were out of this world. The fried chicken and egg soufle were also fantastic! Great wine pairings. Can’t wait to go back!

   I’m giving them 4 stars to not hurt their rating but it should be a one star instead. We go there for my partner’s birthday and upon being seated, the waitress pours us a splash of Prosecco (literally 3 drops and not even a sip) and says this is for your birthday. We just looked at each other in shock and I felt so embarrassed because I was the one who picked this restaurant. It was the tackiest thing anyone had done and we would have preferred if they didn’t give us anything at all rather than three drops of Prosecco. When it came time for them to bring the dessert that we ordered with a candle, they brought it when my partner wasn’t at the table. I told them that he’s at the restroom and they should bring it back when he’s at the table but they didn’t care and just left it on the table because they were too lazy to bring it back. Overall they ruined a very special night for us.

    Don’t love the new menu. Definitely not as delicious. But great service as usual. Prob won’t go back unless the menu changes again.
