Pleasantly surprised by the selection and style of this restaurant. It's part of a hotel, so don't walk the extra distance looking for a street-level entrance like we did. Friendly staff and not a long wait for food and drinks, as well as tasty food selection. Would definitely recommend a light dinner with cocktails at this spot.
