Very quiet Thursday visit(excluding their very nice Martin Audio speaker system playing very nice afro-house, which helpful staff were kind enough to turn down just slightly for us), minus a few unavailable dishes including wagyu steak and black cod. Would return on a busier day to sample more of the menu and see how it is of a Saturday. Would still recommend.
