    This was the perfect evening. I took my partner for their birthday, and everything was beyond wonderful. This is the only restaurant where we both had something amazing to say about every single dish. We hardly even got a chance to talk, with how much we were praising the food! Genuinely one of the best meals either of us have ever had. Thank you so much for making our night so special.
