I’ve been to this location before, but I’ve been to the one on Fillmore Street. It had been a long time and I was very glad to see how busy they were and that the food was still excellent. The service was fantastic and they were very attentive.

I’d never been there and was blown away by the food! It was so delicious…all the dishes we ordered. My friend is vegetarian and there are endless choices. We ate outside so I couldn’t really address the “noise” rating adequately
