Amazing. The taste was wonderful, every dish was very good. The wine also is so good. Cocktails are good, but not amazing, presentation of cocktails is quite normal. But the food, attention and wine was so good. I definitely recommend it. The taste the Christmas menu and was so good. And the pasta with cheese for my little one also wonderful

I had a pleasant experience. I was with my family, and it was a good ambiance. I ordered the salmon, and the plating had a spicier sauce that I had to stop partaking in as it was too hot for me. Overall, the Restaurant threw in a cake to honor my MBA completion, and I thought that was such a sweet touch. Thank you to the staff.

Really lovely experience. Food and service were both top notch. The dry- aged steak and all of the sides were perfectly prepared and the rolls were a standout! Don’t bother with the sauces, the steak is so flavorful, it really doesn’t need it. Wine list was a bit pricy. I wish the corkage was more reasonable.

Restaurant was lovely. We had live music, which was quite enjoyable. Food was terrific-we got the largest combo platter, which had many vegetarian and several meat entrees. There was a good level of heat. Would definitely recommend/return.
