    It started with a very professional hostess in a very cool setting, then an absolutely delicious cocktail (The Alexis) that had so many delightful flavours. We were just in for an appetizer so we had the dumplings and tacos ~ just packed with flavour!!! One of the best food experiences I’ve had in a while and I can’t wait to go back to try their homemade ice cream!

    The drinks were amazing but the food was overly sweetened and lacked basic salt. It appears they are trying to hard to be relevant in the kitchen. Please don’t overcomplicate your dishes.
