    I visited this restaurant today and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience. The waiter never introduced herself, and when she asked the typical question, “Can I start you off with any drinks?”, we had to flag down a different waiter to find out who was actually serving us. Throughout our meal, our assigned waiter never checked in to see how we were enjoying our food. It was not a busy day, so I was surprised by the lack of service. I frequently had to request forks and napkins, and although I had a table for five, only four glasses and sets of utensils were provided. It was quite inconvenient to have to ask for these essentials repeatedly. To be honest, I have received better service at chain restaurants like Outback. Overall, my experience at this restaurant was quite poor, and I do not plan on returning.

    Great experience overall, however, the patio wasn't as heated as expected. The tables was a little tight squeezed so once we were being seated a few of the other customers looked annoyed that we had to squeeze through while they were dining.

    Hi Elise! Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear you had a great experience overall. We apologize for the patio not being as heated as expected and for the seating arrangement being a bit tight. We'll certainly look into improving these aspects for a more comfortable visit next time. We appreciate your input!

    I love this place. I go to them a lot. Went for the Sunday 45$ a person for the 3 course meal. They accommodated me since I’m vegan. The food is always delicious and my favorite desert was the vegan flan. The drinks are also good.

    Ambiance, food and drinks were good. Waitress was alright. We were celebrating a birthday, I wrote it in the reservation and I guess she forgot, the dessert I ordered came just plane. When I told her, instead of bringing a new dessert with a candle, she just brought a candle and put it on the dessert 🙄

    Hi Christopher! Thanks for your feedback! We're glad you enjoyed the food and ambiance. We apologize for the mix-up with the birthday dessert and will work on improving that experience. Hope to see you again soon!
