    Very delicious food. Friendly staff. Beautiful decor, interesting and delicious drink. My only feedback would be that a lot of the food is quite oily. But I guess that is what makes it delicious too ;)

    Probably better NOT on a Valentine’s Day. Staff seemed a little discombobulated,stressed and not super friendly from the beginning….4-person tables were pulled apart to increase seating for couples on Valentine’s Day. Tables were uncomfortably close. Patrons and staff had to brush their butts on your table to get through the maze. Staff couldn’t handle the extra volume because of so many 2-tops being seated so quickly. I assume table number designations all changed as staff had a LOT of trouble figuring where to deliver food. There was a lot of chat between strangers at tables regarding all the incorrect food deliveries. We waited 20 minutes for water and had the wrong food brought 3 times. This seemed a management issue to cram so many in a small space and upend their staff. We felt bad for the food runners as our servers was busy taking so many other orders. With all that said: The bar was on top of their game!!! Drinks came out by other servers fast! Food was GREAT! Hot and flavorful!!! Tables had rose petals on them which was a nice touch. We’ll be back on a hopefully slower night.
