Our server, Joy, demonstrated exceptional customer service throughout our dining experience. Her profound knowledge of the menu and professionalism contributed to a memorable evening. The lobster ravioli I savored was nothing short of exquisite, surpassing mere deliciousness. My colleague relished the shrimp scampi, praising its impeccable preparation. The delightful cocktails and delectable tiramisu dessert perfectly complemented the overall culinary journey.

We went out for my sisters bday and had a blast. We did have to wait a little longer for our table but once we were seated the service and atmosphere was 10/10! Indya was our waitress (I apologize if I butchered the spelling). She was phenomenal, very attentive and friendly! Each course came out in a timely mattered we were impressed because of how busy the restaurant was. We had a few espresso martinis and dessert to close out the night and will definitely be coming back! Thank you 🥂

As someone who has celiac disease and has to eat gluten free this restaurant made it extremely easy. I asked for a gluten free menu and they always made sure to reassure me that everything was made with the cooks knowing there’s an allergy and it is all gluten free. When I ordered drinks the bar tenders and the servers were very specific about what liquor I could have because their house vodka is wheat based so they poured Tito’s. The service was phenomenal. The food was incredible. Will be back.

Good food. Drinks were not made the right way though. Quite noisy and it’s hard to talk but the vice is really nice.

The food was great! We really liked the carbonara and the mushroom risotto. The truffle bread was good but not $12 good. Service and ambience was nice. It was noisy but it was also a busy Friday night. My husband's Old Fashioned was SO smooth and delicious; I usually don't like them but I was taking multiple sips of his. Would definitely come here again!
