I went there with friends to celebrate my birthday on a Thursday night. The ambiance was wonderful! They had a DJ playing great music. Not sure if he is there daily. Even with the DJ playing music the noise level was not bad. We were still able to have a conversation and hear eachother. The food and drinks were great! I had The Goddess cocktail very good! As well as a dirty martini. My entree was the Moroccan lamb shank. Delicious. Our server Camila was very nice and accommodating. Overall a great experience. And would recommend.

Not the authentic Italian style when it comes to portions, very small but tasty. We didn't realize the tip was included and wondered why our server was sooo happy, he got a double tip. If this restaurant is experiencing guest not tipping, and your going to automatically add, you should advise the guest that trust their bill.

Not our first visit to Helena as we are locals first visit nothing but excellence all around this time around went for Easter. Brunch started off great got our cappuccino wonderful was brought a basket of pastries, which unfortunately were about a week old so hard we can barely eat them, even after dipping them in coffee First course was very good after that downhill all the way everyone around us was served and we were forgotten time and time and time again manager came and offered us exactly what we were paying for, but then stating what can I do for you? Can I get you drinks which were included in the package because Easter brunch was a package meal so in other words, she offered us nothing Was very unsympathetic and really could care less about our experience. Left very unsatisfied finally received our meal which was unfortunately uneditable so yeah, very bad experience.

Refused to let me and my friends do bottomless brunch unless we did their mandatory brunch which was $56 per person. As a person with dietary restrictions i came for a specific dish and they wouldn’t even let me do it a la carte. This left a bad taste in my mouth and i didn’t appreciate that they wouldn’t even let us to bottomless mimosas ever when we offered to pay more than the menu price. I don’t know if I’ll ever return

I’m guessing since we came in Easter that’s why the experience was not great. The restaurant is beautiful, but the normal menu was not available, the server was kind of rude and they burned almost everything my table of 8 people ordered. I do want to go back to try their a la carte food because the reviews I read that helped me choose this place were all positive.

Despite some negative feedback, I celebrated my wife's birthday last Saturday at that restaurant, and I was very pleased. The drinks were well-made, the food was tasty, and the dessert was delicious. I understand that some people might mistakenly compare it to fine dining, given that it's a fast-casual establishment, which could lead to unmet expectations. However, I found it to be perfectly suitable for a celebratory occasion..

Our server was nice. Drinks were watery and over priced. I ordered lamb chops, flavor and presentation were good but was slightly overcooked. I ordered medium, they came out closer to well. Silverware was dirty so I opted to eat my $80 meal with plastic cutlery. Seating was packed in kind of awkward. Bathroom could have been cleaner. This is a great place to take pictures.
