   First time visiting. Date night reservation. We were seated promptly, offered a cocktail. Loved the dew drop gin cocktail. Service was excellent. Server was attentive and offered good suggestions. Interesting menu. We tried the humus sampler with the wood fired pita, so yummy! We shared 3 other small plates which was the perfect amount of food. The sweet potato had a great smooth and crunchy texture. The Mafaldine pasta with braised duck and truffle cream sauce was divine. The Pork belly savory, loved the fried Brussels sprouts. Fri desert we tried the sticks pudding with ginger ice cream and a melted caramel pour over…oooh do good and definitely sticky! Would highly recommend this restaurant for a fun date night. Happy staff, great food and drinks.

   We ordered 3 small plates and one pasta and it was enough for two of us. The only real stand-out dish was the eggplant hummus -the pita bread was great. Would not recommend the hamachi collar - it was not fresh. My husband and I were both cold - wore our coats and it was 78 degrees that day, so the A/C must have been on. We probably won't venture back. Service was great.

   The food, as always, was exquisite. Our server James was on top of his game and made our evening more enjoyable.

   The service was great. The food was not up to the cost. Did not meet expectations. The bone in fish collar did not really have much meat. Somewhat disappointing . For the portion sizes, knowing these were sharing, still were small. Each on maybe two can share. B Other tapis style restaurants, this does not reach the same level. Glad we went. Enjoyed the experience but not likely to go back. But again the food was very good.
