Ran late because of traffic but hostess looked out for us and made sure we had a great table. Such an affordable, yet high quality experience- not easy to find that combination in SoCal. I would highly recommend this restaurant for a group or family. Each plate is around $15 and it’s normal to get 3 plates, allowing you to try multiple choices in one experience. So, if you are looking for a quality experience with a group, this would be the perfect choice!
