His food captures the essence of that history but takes its culinary cues from the kitchens of his childhood, the great talents with whom he worked throughout his early career and incorporates his signature techniques that blend familiar and bold flavors to create the most craveable dishes.

I’m sure this place gets really loud at night, but our girls club meeting needed a place where we could share conversation and talk and drinks (they pour heavy!!) and so this was perfect. Brunch was very good, my partners -in-crime mostly had lunch and liked it too. For drinks and a meal, it was reasonably priced.

The event Friday night was very lively and the DJ was great. We enjoyed ourselves on the rooftop and the servers were awesome. I also felt very safe with all the security measures taken inside and outside the restaurant.
