Great food and ambience. Service was incredible. The staff was very kind and let us be seated even after we were late to our reservations. Week day happy hour at the bar is an incredible deal as well. We definitely will recommend the place to others and keep it on our list for when we next visit the city.

Amazing time all around. The food was flavorful and beautifully presented. Ben, our server was very nice, engaging and knowledgeable of the menu. The cocktails were unique and delicious. The Persian lemonade is a hit for someone wanting a floral yet tart vodka based beverage. I can’t wait to go back!
