    My husband and I celebrated our anniversary with an evening reservation. I made a reservation two nights before. We enjoyed the menu variety and selected the fondue and king crab as an appetizer. They were delicious and the service was great. As an entree we ordered the corvina fish, steak, and brussel sprouts. In all we had a tasty meal and the food was timed appropriately. We enjoyed a lovely anniversary dessert as well. The live entertainment was a plus! We would gladly return.

    My partner and I have always wanted to try this place and decided to just send it and come here on a random Wednesday night. And it was AMAZING. The ambiance was SO aesthetic and immersive. Our server, Arian, and his server assistant Abr, took such good care of us. Even the staff besides Arian and Abr paid us attention - they would suddenly appear and take the wine out of our hands if we attempted to pour it ourselves. Arian's wine recommendation paired well with both our entrees and he timed the coursing of the meal perfectly. The food was delicious!!!! Especially the baba ghanoush. We were also blown away by the Vanilla Creme Brûlée. We weren't even speaking while eating it, just looking at each other, nodding our heads, and pointing back at the little dessert. It was such a beautiful experience.

    This restaurant was so cute inside. Small and intimate, but not crowded. Our server, Junior was very knowledgeable and friendly. The food was wonderful and we had a great evening before our show at the Dr. Phillips Center. We will definitely be back next time we are in town for an event!
