    Everything was great! The food, service, drinks, ambience and the noise level were all on point. We could not have had a better experience. Wait, only one thing would have made it better, we were seated at a very small inner room table. Would have preferred a booth or one of the tables in the various offshoot rooms. Otherwise, perfect!

    We went to Four by Brother Luck for my birthday and we did the four course dinner. Because it was my birthday, they gave us 2 glasses of a sparkling wine free. We had the jalapeno poppers and spinach tortellini for Course 1. The poppers are extremely delicious and the tortellini had a wonderful sauce. Course 2 was Duck Green Chili and Lamb Stew. Both had very nice flavors! Course 3 was New York Strip and Black Garlic Cod. The sauces on the steak were very nice and the cod was crispy. The lentils under the cod added a lot of flavor to that dish. For dessert we had the orange sopapillas and the banana chiffon cake. Both were very nice. It is expensive to do the four course dinner, but for a special occasion it was worth it.
