I was blown away by the creative ingredients the chef used in every dish, I love all the dishes we ordered, scallops & Pork Shoulder & octopus. Service is super friendly. Vibe is awesome. We randomly walked in around 3 PM on a Tuesday, and they were almost packed. Highly recommend.
Highlights: Rustic, Rich flavors, Quasi-tapas, meat forward, vegetarian accesible menu Came here with a friend and enjoyed the offerings. Flavors were bold and rich. Cuisine leans more towards marinated, aged, salty, and fatty flavor profiles. Plates are medium to small size. Ordered 4 plates for 2 people and was satisfied but portions were not excessive. All menu items come with suggested wine pairings. Service was excellent, very attentive staff. My friend is vegetarian and we had no difficulty finding vegetarian options. Although vegan is a tough sell at this establishment. Plating is well done. Would recommend reservation as the place was very busy. A little difficult to find from the street, so unlikely to stumble upon. Overall great experience, would recommend.
We came here for lunch right when they opened at 11am and got seated as walk-ins. The interior of the restaurant had a lovely modern finish, and the service was insanely quick and attentive. We ordered the pork belly and the milk braised pork shoulder. Both dishes were beautifully plated and tasted incredibly delicious. Of the two dishes we ordered, we enjoyed the flavor of the pork belly more with its unique ginger glaze, but the texture of the pork shoulder was so soft and tender that it simply melted in your mouth. We had a wonderful experience, and we will definitely return and try other dishes as well!
