Negatives: Staff seated us by the exit door We waited 15 minutes before a server took our order Server forgot our wine and then still had it on the receipt Our entire order came out at once, we had 30 seconds to enjoy our appetizers Our entrees got cold very quickly as the exit door was repeatedly opened (not sure why they have tables there and/or use that exit in winter) Pros: Food was decent Live music was a nice touch Server tried to apologize by giving us a bottle of wine (drastically different than what we originally ordered though) We were excited to try this place, but it severely underperformed. We won’t be going back.

Food was very good. Lots of delicious options. We were told that kids were not allowed in the Lounge area, however, which is where we had our reservation for our large party. when we pointed out that they literally have a kids menu on their website, so we thought it was kid friendly, they agreed to seat us but told us that our kids could not cry because it would ruin the vibe. Of course we felt like we should just leave. Thankfully, when we mentioned this to the hostess, she kindly made space for us on the Turquoise side of the restaurant. This ambiance was more suited to kids, so it was OK. Still, if I were to come back it would be without kids.

Last minute reservation for New Year’s Eve! It was a cute place for a date night and with live music. The zesty carrot spread was delicious. They had nice selection of NA beverages to celebrate the new year. The scallops melted in like butter and my boyfriend’s lemon chicken was perfectly cooked and flavorful!
