    Superb food, and great service. I took a group here on Christmas Eve, and we loved everything. Our server, Alec, was helpful and properly attentive. We shared the deviled eggs, which everyone agreed were the best they've had. Many enjoyed the Wagyu Cheeseburger, while others had the Crisply Chicken Thighs and Slow-Cooked Beef Shoulder. It was all superb, and the Bearnaise sauce with the fries was brilliant. Highly recommended!

    Without a doubt, the food was very flavorful. The tacos on the happy hour menu in particular are perfect. However, these positives were a bit undermined by the lackluster service. Overall we felt a bit rushed through the meal, items weren’t coursed out despite us waiting a bit between ordering appetizers and mains. To our benefit, a food runner left an incorrect dish on our table faster than we could object, so we got a freebie. All that to say, I would definitely dine here again to try some other menu items and give the service another chance. Seriously so tasty though!
