Pasha S.

Dining experience was great - friendly staff, quick service and modern but romantic ambiance. Although the food was good, it wasn’t amazing. Had app, main and dessert. Cocktails did tickle the taste buds. Docked one star because for the price, wife and I would rather eat elsewhere.

First-time visit post pandemic and the experience did not disappoint.y preference is to sit at the bar where you can see all and interact with the wonderful staff. When other establishments struggle to get to pre pandemic service levels, this place has remained consistent a highly recommend status. Come alone or bring the parents (make them pay).

No gluten free alternatives left me no options except a $44 steak with fries for lunch. The steak, while cooked well, lacked flavor and could’ve been saved had it just had a bit of rock salt or garlic butter or rosemary as a garnish. The chef could have complimented the steak with 3 sticks of asparagus and mashed potatoes and it would’ve been classier and tastier than a mountain of fries. And the fries were average. The staff was kind, which lead me to leave 2 stars instead of one. Overall, a lackluster experience. I will not return.
