Everything on the menu exceeded our expectations, we wanted a nice dinner on our last night in the city and we are so glad we found this place! The service had many layers of professionalism from bussing to waiters to drink refills, we were waited on like it was a private dinner and the place was packed. We hope to be back one day and dine in the coolest vibes and ambiance

Food was exceptional. Service was less than desirable. Had to wave down the waiter more than several times for water and a check.

Not sure what the hype is about for this restaurant. Highly disappointed. Very rushed and expensive. Food not very good. Bathroom set up terrible and could not see in stalls. Definitely would not go back.

One nof my favorite places to eat. The food is consistently beyond delicious. I absoluytely love the atmosphere, particularly around the holidays. But in general a very warm and inviting ambiance. The service is also very good, with professional and attentive staff. Overall, excellent customer experience
