The food and service were impeccable! Best steak I have had in Atlanta since I have moved here back in 2016. Every detail in every dish was captured and the finished plate was delicious. Even my mother who never likes eating out loved everything she got here including the Lamb shank, she is difficult to please and you guys hit a home run! The cocktails were also amazing, loved Lady Sakura! 10 out of 10, we will definitely be back.

The brunch options were great, many of them having unique twists! Our server was fantastic and being seated outside (covered patio with heat lamps to begin with then as the temperatures began to rise, the coverings were raised to allow in the fresh air. It was one of the most relaxing brunches I've had in a long time!

Everything was great other than my prime rib. That kitchen only knows how to serve it rare. I wanted medium and I got super well done. People were nice and service was fine. I guess just make sure you like your prime rib the way the kitchen will serve it.
