    The chicken was raw and uncooked. Fried mushroom was very dry and almost burnt.

    Most of the starters were more spicy than the average. The fries were oily. The noise level was extremely annoying!! There was a very loud group that was obviously disturbing everyone in the restaurant but no one asked them to tone it down a little bit to respect the others.

    We went early and had happy hour drinks and small plates that were very good. Our waitress was very helpful as it was our first time there. I also forgot my lock for my bike and the hostess was extremely accommodating and let me put it in the front lobby. It was a great local restaurant and I would definately go back. I will also tell my friends about it.

    I had to lower my points because of the tiny gnats or fruit flies buzzing around my table. Everything else was great, but those little guys definitely put a damper on my mood and felt a bit icky. I understand these infestations can be tricky to manage, and I appreciate your efforts!
