    We had a reservation but it took a long time to get our table cleaned and ready. Once we were seated, our server Kristin greeted us immediately. She was excellent. She ensured that we were well taken care of and made some great recommendations. My daughter had the chicken and waffles and she said it was great. I had the breakfast burger and it was delicious. We enjoy the food and ambiance.

    The place is really nice looking. The service was amazing. We started at the bar while waiting for our reservation time. We had a couple drinks, the bartender was very attentive. Once our table was set, we were introduced to our waiter who made the recommendations and specialties, we ordered the Serrano ham and manchego cheese croquettes. DELICIOUS! We moved on to the 14 ounce rib eye and 16 ounce n y strip. Again spot on the temp at medium rare, we accompanied it with the truffle Mac n cheese and duck fat papas bravas. It was a great expirience for the taste palette. 10/10 recommend.
