    We’ve wanting to try this place for awhile. Our server wanted to please but might not of understood my cocktail order, after about 10 min I checked on its status and he came back with the menu to say they didn’t have what I didn’t order. Clarification given and it came out promptly. Too bad my husband had to wait for his Diet Coke too. Calamari was well breaded but a bit tough. I don’t think I’d get it again. The beet salad was wonderful with the tender burata drizzled with balsamic reduction. I got the shrimp appetizer as am entree. Again shrimp was a bit tough and as tasty as the sauce was, it seemed to overpower the shrimp. My husband’s short ribs were fork tender and delicious. Will we try it again. Sure.

    The food was incredible, the service was great, and it was a fantastic way to spend Christmas Eve. We had everything from the lobster Mac and cheese to the burger and steak, and even the charcuterie board. And guess what? Our two kids loved it too! Thank you, Mozambique, for being open on Christmas Eve!
