    Very cute entrance to the restaurant; great music played by the DJ (also the volume was low enough for you to enjoy the music while still being able to hear your date talk); the crispy plantains appetizer and sushi rolls were 5 star (so delicious); the drinks are super cute; the only con is that the tables are so tiny and close together. You can barely fit two sushi rolls on your table without fear of knocking something over—the waiters also struggle getting in between the tables with ease. Had a great time and will be back!

    Great atmosphere and very festive environment to be in. Had fun Christmas decor and great customer service. The food is delish, my favorite was the mushroom risotto with pancetta is a must! The food comes out very hot and warm just to my liking. No one likes cold food and this place just knows how to keep the food steaming from oven to table. I have gone a couple of times already, making a reservation was easy.

    This place was incredible from start to finish. We had flown in some family for my girlfriend‘s birthday, and even though the plane was an hour late, we were seated immediately while we waited for the rest of our guests. The hostess was also unusually accommodating in reducing the size of our table while maintaining a perfect spot.  the waiter Colin was over the top with suggestions, service and a great smile. Your food was the best I’ve had in San Diego. The three medallions with crab, the tuna, avocado stack was the best appetizer, and the humongous mud pie at the end really topped it off. We enjoyed it so much. We ended up staying there for over four hours, and the gracious manager even took our picture by the Christmas tree when we were the last ones leaving. The parking is wide open and easy to do. No valet parking to mess up your car and spend another $20. All in all one of the best experiences I’ve had eating in San Diego. Not to mention the very unique view of downtown at night.

    Me and a friend stopped in and sat at the bar. We were greeted right away. All the bartenders were knowledgeable and friendly. Food was amazing and didn’t take too long. Ambiance was perfect too, not too dark or bright. Shout out to Jad the supervisor for checking in on us and making sure our experience was a positive one. Will definitely be back!
