    Go to happy hour upstairs, it will set the tone for the rest of the evening, and then enjoy ramen downstairs after. It’s always a vibe!

    Visited for the all you can eat brunch and welcomed by courteous staff in a beautiful setting. The value is amazing as plenty of food is provided! Next time I will be sure to state which items I do not need/want! Definitely will be back! Only con was a large table for birthday party that impacted the ambience and noise drastically.

    My wife and I went here for Valentine's day. The food quality was overall very good. The salad we ordered was ok, but the waiter promptly offered a replacement for my wife. The oysters were (in my opinion - over 20 for 6 smaller variety ones) overpriced, but generally I expect that some in a restaurant like this. I do give them good marks for overall experience and ambiance. My wife prefers the high tables in the bar area, but this is no ordinary bar area, there are dedicated wait staff...plenty of them. The service is prompt, but not overbearing. The entrees were quite good, and the dessert special presentation was also on point. I put this in my special occasion category due to the price, but I would not call it outlandish. Really like the bar seating and vibe there...nothing crazy and not overcrowded. The main restaurant is well lit, but some of the seating is a little tight and normal height tables. Service throughout is consistent.

    Upon arrival the staff is super welcoming with smiles (loved it). Very cute intimate spot. As soon as seated our server had waters on the table. Was also very grateful for his attention to us && dietary restrictions mentioned when acquiring about a dish substitutions but not actually saying. My girlfriend said the chicken wings were bomb. I got the veggie mandu fried && they were packed && meaty. For my dish I tried something different but really enjoyed it ! Dessert was highlight of the meal though! the croiffle was out this world. Almost had to get one to go! i will be back for that && the fresh gnger beer.

    The food was amazing! Multiple portions that actually get you full (unlike other dining experiences that leave you hungry). I would recommend this experience to anyone.
