Visiting Phoenix and picked this out because it seemed reasonable. It was much better than reasonable. Roasted chicken was moist throughout - even the white meat. Soup of the day was chicken gumbo and it was a meal in itself. Highly recommend this restaurant

After spending over $300 Saturday night, the only acceptable items were the appetizers... (Which is sad to say) Shrimp and smoked salmon appetizers REALLY were fantastic!!! The first drink ordered & brought was wrong (Tito's Martini that was brought was NOT a Tito's Martini and came with stuffed olives after EXPLICITLY asking for NON stuffed olives). Fortunately our server replaced it quickly. Main entries were of poor quality. A) Sea bass was not good at all, very fishy & dry, extremely disappointing for $35. B) 2 poke bowls were average and not worth ever ordering again. C) Fish and chips were WAY TOO greasy and soggy. However, we still enjoyed our evening bc of the company at our table as well as the server who was great and attentive, but the food just didn't cut it. IF there's a next time, it will only be appetizers & cocktails.

Not what we’d thought it would be. Too noisy. The New York strip wasn’t that great. The sea bass was very good though
