    The food was delicious, and the service was good. However, the server recommended that we order at least four dishes to share between the two of us. We followed this advice and ordered four dishes, but we felt full after the second one. Additionally, the food took a long time to arrive, and we ended up spending over three hours at the restaurant. Overall, it was a positive experience, and I would give it another try other dishes.

    Great restaurant, food and service. It is a bit loud but that doesn't prevent me from wanting to come back.

    Great food. A little on the pricey side. Always changing the menu so if you like something it might be gone next time you’re there.
