    Had lunch here with the ladies today. It was our first time and we all enjoyed it. We ordered the Biscuits in a bag with jam and the truffle fries for appetizer. Couple ladies tried and loved their cocktail “A Honu World”. For lunch we had the Smashed Burger, prime Rib Moco, Chicken Pot Pie, Fresh Fish Sandwich and their version of the Saimin. Then for dessert we had the bread pudding, coconut lime sorbet, coffee and vanilla ice cream. The sorbet was delicious and refreshing and my fish sandwich was moist and oh so yummy! Our server Dylan ( I’m sorry, I hope I got that right) was helpful and attentive. Service and food are 5 stars!

    The place is simply amazing… decoration was on point, low lighting, rose petals over the seats and tables, jazz player on balcony and even a fire dancer. The drinks were delicious with a fancy presentation. We order the truffle risotto with shaved truffle (table side) on top… fully recommend it. We also ordered the veal chop with potato gratin… out of this world, tender, juicy and very flavorful. Overall this was a 10/10 experience, the staff was very friendly and the way they pull off the experience is very unique. Clark (owner) was very attentive and made us feel like family. Will be going back, they set the bar for a special occasion extremely high! Bravo Gaslamp! You got something amazing going on!!!
