This was a lovely experience. It was a birthday celebration for my daughter in law who is gluten free. The entire menu is gluten free so it was perfect for her. The food was all lovely as was the tea and drinks. I’d highly recommend and we’ll go back.

We were a group of 8, and it was a fun evening. We sat upstairs, which made our boisterous conversation easy to follow as we each sampled a variety of delicious dishes. The tuna tartar and the yuca fries as appetizers were a hit, as were the shorty mash and lamb chops for entrees. The meal was capped with crème brûlée. Leena was super friendly and attentive, and I look forward to a return visit!
