    My food was dry and my partners was overly salt. The noise level was overwhelming.

    Super fun place with easily shareable plates. Also, has a great view of the convention enter with down town in the background across the river. Check it out.

    We ordered 3 entrees and 2 were inedible. We were just going to pay and leave but the server could tell we didn’t like our food so he asked us about it and we told him our complaints: my chilaquiles had egg whites that were uncooked. For me that just made me done with food. It really turned my stomach. My friend’s breakfast sandwich was sooo burnt but also dripping grease. It was very unappetizing. It’s a good thing we had shared the French toast bread pudding to start or else we would have left totally hungry. We were not charged for the inedible meals and it’s worth noting I’ve been to this restaurant before and really enjoyed my food but I don’t think this should have been sent out of the kitchen as it was.

    We appreciate your feedback Aly. I am glad you enjoyed the French toast, but I am very sorry that some of the items you ordered were not up to par. I will pass your comments on so that we can address the issues you experienced. I am happy to hear you have enjoyed the food in your past visits and I know that we can and will do better on your next visit. Sincerely, Jason Dondero General Manager

    Very disappointed. Planned date night. Dish where cutlery was placed, was dirty. Drinks not flavorful, food bland. This place has gone downhill in a major way. Won’t return.

    Pizza was lukewarm and poke was oversauced. Harissa fries and salad were great. Mocktail was not remarkable. Excellent service.
