The staff was wonderful and the ambiance super comfortable and elegant. While the food was delicious, the menu was limited and , I felt, it was overpriced. Basically, $20 for each salad and an average of $25 per roll, and more for entrees. Super convenient if you are staying in the area. Otherwise , there are better options

Food was just ok nothing wow , bone marrow was just 1 piece, nothing special , drinks took more than 25 min to be made and the restaurant was not even full it was 6 pm . Waiters need to be more attentive looks like they are still getting trained , had to tell them 2 times to pick up our empty plates. Ambiance was good music wasn’t too loud you are able to have a convo without screaming . Restaurant has potential will give it another 2 tries since it’s fairly new .

Awful experience. We were seated at the time of our reservation. Drinks and an appetizer were ordered and came in a timely manner. It was hard to rate the food because it never came!! We ordered and an hour and a half later…the waitress and manager said that there were still two tickets in front of us. We ordered salads and entrees…and, our salads had not even come to the table. Arrived at 5:45 pm…had to leave at 7:30 to catch a performance. Do NOT waste your time with this restaurant!!

We had a reservation at 6:15 for 3 inside and were seated at 6:25 at a two top outside while we waited for a table to open up inside. Our drink order was taken at 6:30 and we were moved inside shortly thereafter. By 7 we had not received our drinks and no one had come to take our food order so we left as we had a concert to attend at 8. Very disappointed would not recommend.

Terrible service!! Reservations were at 8pm. Weren’t seated til 8:25. A waiter didn’t arrive til close to 9pm. Never ate as we were frustrated with the service. The food coming out didn’t look appealing. Im assuming you come here for the ambiance, since the music and noise level is so high. Making it hard to have a conversation. I do not recommend this place!!

Fries arrived cold. Sent them back immediately. My friend had to send the salmon back after asking for it to be more on the well done side (to prevent it from being raw in the middle) sure enough, it was undercooked. The employee returned with 3 mins later with THE SAME PIECE OF SALMON ( had the same fork and bite indents). Corn was delicious so we ordered another serving. Second serving did not have the same flavor as the first. Too many inconsistencies and our server, nick, seemed to blatantly disregard our table throughou... read more

Girls night out. Had reservations for 5 @8:15pm on a Friday night Halloween weekend, was seated right away thank goodness no wait like previous reviews. We had a female server, music was way too loud it’s difficult to have a conversation period. It’s a struggle even for the server to input our orders. Service was slow which I can understand, possible short staffing and busy weekend. We had to ask 3 different workers for a straw because our server seemed to forgot, took at least 10 minutes. My friend was actually just gonna g... read more

Me and my lady was sitting there for about an hour waiting on just two drinks. The restaurant wasn’t busy at all, not sure If it was because of the color of our skin.
