    I’ve been a fan of AG for a long time, so I was really excited to try this. I went with my husband and 2 friends and we did family style apps with individual entrees. For apps we got the hummus, tuna tartare, and spicy lamb meatballs. For entrees we got chicken maqluba x2, leg of lamb, and filet mignon with AG fries. Everything was INCREDIBLE!!! So fresh and such bright flavors. All the food I’ve loved my whole life but with an elevated twist. The ambiance was perfect for a date night. The drinks were amazing as well (definitely get the Cleve’s Idol cocktail!). Overall great experience and I hope this becomes a more regular thing!!
