    A superb dining experience. The bronzing, broccolini, and potatoes were delicious. Poke tacos are unmatched. Our server , Nicole, was the best. So friendly and knowledgeable. One of the best ever!

    The food was delicious. We had the Crispy Thai Shrimp and Kale apple salad. The portions are for sharing. The server was excellent, and he worked with us to make our play.

    The food was good, but unfortunately had a really disappointing experience. Arrived 5 minutes before our reservation but got seated an entire hour late. The waitress seemed nice but after our first order of food came we could not get her attention. We only got more food/drinks by flagging down someone else working there. We would’ve ordered more but then even that order was taking forever until we finally asked to cancel it if it wasn’t on its way. Even took 20-30 minutes to get the bill after the restaurant was emptying so it shouldn’t have been too busy. We were so late to where we planned to go after that I missed out on getting my Tao rewards to avoid getting stuck there even longer.
