We shared several appetizers and they were all fantastic!

They were very attentive and accommodating of my food allergies. There was no wait for the table. The food was superb. Excellent value for the price.

Service was great! I liked walking in and seeing the chefs at work. Food was good as well. The place needs a deco update a bit dated and plates were plastic!
