    We had a good experience once we sat at our table, it could have been better with how they call you for your table.. I used my landline phone number when I made the reservation. Our reservation time came and went and it was so noisy inside even if they had called out my name, I would not have been able to hear it.. I finally go up and ask how much longer and was told they had already "called" me.. They need a better system of paging people to come to the hostess podium when their tables are ready. Plus the crowd around the Hostess podium would have been dangerous if there had been an emergency. You literally could not get in the door as people were crowding in trying to either get to the bar or the hostess podium

    We loved this new restaurant. We are neighbors so we were hopeful. The ambiance was great. Our server Alena was very attentive and the food was awesome. We are foodies and don't give 5 stars lightly. The food was great and the sauces were nuanced and flavorful. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed. We will be back.
