The food was fabulous and while traditional pasta dishes, they really elevated with interesting spices and layers of flavor. The service was A+ and gave her a 30% tip.

Delicious food and absolutely outstanding service! Seriously, I can't remember receiving such an excellent service - attentive, precise, efficient. We had water refilled immediately, and without asking, two attentive waiters worked as a team, so we were always taken care of if we needed a wine refill or anything else. It was Michelin star level food and service. Great appetizers with lebaneh. Crabcake was also superb. For the main course, we had seabass and filet mignon and loved both. Very good cocktails. I would only add some interior decorations - that's the only thing I can think of that could be improved. We'll definitely come back to this restaurant.
