Dinner was so yum! It was definitely difficult to find something because I have a lot of food allergies and they said there are literally only like three things that are gluten free, but I worked it out. My husband had the wagyu on the stone and I had edamame. We also got the bone marrow but I got it with no bread and instead of their chili aioli and bread crumbs, they topped it with garlic confit. For the main dish I had the lettuce wrap burger with only grilled onions and it was perfectly seasoned with salt and pepper. I didn't even miss all of the other condiments it would have come with. My husband got the pad Thai with chicken and thought it was great. He ate my side dish of battered green beans and said it probably would have been better if they were steamed or sauteed. For dessert, we shared this fudge souffle thing that I swear I should have started with that because I wanted more but I was too full. We decided that we were going to try the mocktails and stay away from the alcohol tonight. Both of what we had was so good we ordered multiple drinks. Honestly I thought it was going to be a terrible experience because we had a reservation and then they told us we still had to wait almost a half hour and the guy at the door wasn't very warm or welcoming. But the one who made it all better was the server. He was so patient and kind and joked around with us and really turned it around. We will return.

Our server, Meir, was very attentive and went out of his way to make sure we were happy. The food was delicious and came very quickly. Our only complaint was that the music was too loud.
