    I discovered this place on Google and decided to give it a try. The ambience was great. We started with the portobello mushroom with burrata, which was excellent—a vegetarian would absolutely love it. We also tried the squash, which was absolutely delightful. However, the lamb chops were a letdown; they were too tough, lacked the wine reduction mentioned on the menu, and the fingerling potatoes on the side were hard and inedible. Feeling a bit disappointed, we decided to try the scallops as a final dish, but unfortunately, they were overcooked and rubbery. Despite these setbacks, I’d still consider coming back, but I’ll definitely steer clear of the lamb and scallops next time.
