    It would be 5 stars but the table for 4 is a little tight. We really enjoyed the food immensely, the experience and the whole vibe of the place is very cool. It’s so different and just what we needed in San. Diego. We went on NYE for the first time and they didn’t skip a beat. Cannot wait to go back.

    We had a great time. Our waitress Tiffany was so knowledgeable and helped us through the menu. They have a wide selection of foods and everything that we ate was excellent. You order everything at once and they bring it to you in courses. Very fun. Definitely going to go back and do it again.

    Well worth it! Excellent service by our server Olivia - by name request her if possible! Was able to jump on an open reservation last minute. Will look to return just the adults, w/out kids this time, for a proper adults only experience.

    My party and I had an absolutely amazing time, it was our first time there and we were a little concerned having heard mixed reviews about the food. But we loved everything, the food was delicious the service was amazing and the ambience was spectacular! Can’t wait to go back
