I have heard so much about this place and so I wanted to give it a try being that most of the reviews I read were five star! After my visit in the evening that I had, I ended up giving the restaurant a four stars. The Ambiance is excellent and it's very upbeat and modern, service was good but not excellent. We had to ask for bread and they brought us this small single roll with four slices. Very stingy on the bread. The appetizers that were ordered was the calamari and they were a little skimpy on the calamari versus other restaurants that I had visited. The calamari also seemed a little bland even though it wasn't deep fried, but it appeared it was stir-fried with some spices, but it still seems like it lacked something. For my dinner I ordered the lamb rack and it was very tasty and cooked as expected. The ribs had a good portion of meat and it was seasoned quite well. My date ordered the seafood stew and she particularly didn't care for it and said that she would not order it again. I tried the stew and it appealed to me however I am glad that I did not make this as my main entree. Dessert was five stars! We ordered the chocolate mousse with two scoops of vanilla ice cream and that was divine. It made up for all of the previous sins and I would go there just for the desert! All in all like I said I gave it a four stars out of five and would I dine here again? Of course I would!

Always busy, always meets expectations. $8 happy hour cocktails all day. Good for both casual date nights and to bring the parents for a special occasion. Friendly staff and good food. It’s a small space, so best to make reservations. 3 course pri-fixe special before 6:30.

First visit, so far so good. Great ambiance. The modern style and outgoing vibes, I like it. Service was on point. Fast and accurate. After all the meals, leave a room for desserts because they serve really heavenly tasting desserts!

Wonderful little restaurant. Much of it is taken up by the bar so there isn't a ton of room inside. The food was delicious, but the service made the visit stand out. The staff was very friendly and attentive, and very helpful in celebrating a special occasion. We had the salmon and seafood stew. They were both very flavorful.

Love this place, have been there 150 or more times. Better on slow nights. Opens 530, stops takingdiners around 930, nice small bar to have inexpensive drinks. Food is generally top notch and their small plates are too. There is a reason I've been there a hundred fifty times
