Food is consistently very good (their bibimbop is a personal favorite - and the toffee pudding is incredible), service is always professional and attentive, the bar makes good drinks, and the setting is comfortable - if a bit loud (which can be good or bad depending on your audience, evening).

Host was flexible in seating request. They had excellent gnocchi, good meat dishes, though special was more expensive than expected (should have asked price), and dessert was good, but not a souffle as listed by the waiter, more of a chocolate lava cake. Very busy, so fairly loud environment and slow service. Small, but nice bar at entrance.
