   I love coming here because they always have something new to try. We chose to do dinner on Sunday because it's quieter than Fri/Sat with the live music. So it was nice and mellow. For happy hour we split the chicken bao buns and for dinner we had the burger and pasta. Everything was excellent as always, no complaints. Thanks B+R!

   This was our first visit and we loved it. The service was great and the food is perfect. There was live music that was a great level and the seating is not crowded.

   We really wanted to like this place. It took 1 hour and 45 minutes from the time we sat down until we could finally leave. The Old Fashions were mediocre. Salad was good. Then the rest of the food went down hill from there. Brussel sprouts were doused in peanut oil. The duck confit carnitas were extremely bland. And the size of the tortillas were slightly larger than a sand dollar. The mushroom Diane very salty. And the Halibut was salty - twice because the first time it came cold and over cooked and that one was salty. Then they made another one and that one was warm and salty. We were baffled that the food was so bad. And for the price point - you have got to be kidding me. They were nice about everything and did not make us pay for the food we did not eat. But it was very disappointing because we had to sit there for almost two hours for everything and we left tired and hungry. One thing to note also - the waitress forced us to set the Brussel sprouts in a bag even though we wanted to eat them (or at least try to) with the bland and the other salty food. That also bugged the crap out of me. This place is probably better just for drinks and maybe French fries. What a bummer. I hope they work on making their food better because that is too many entrees to mess up all at once. And the food and drinks are not cheap.

   Excellent service, ambiance and food. The dining room is absolutely beautiful! There is some room for improvement on portion size. I had the coffee French toast and salmon Latkes. Overall a great experience.

   Nearly flawless, but then flawless. Hang with me a minute. First time here and we were sat immediately with a smile and warm welcome. We had the wagyu and tuna apps and wow. Magnificent. Flavors galore. The waiter took our entire order and promised to bring everything out in sequence and so far that is what happened. Then… my dining partner got their main (burger and mashed potatoes) and I… well… didn’t feet my order for another five minutes. The burger was going cood and I was without food. Never a good thing. When my duck (some of the best I’ve ever had) arrived I asked what the delay was and the response was “we are a share plates restaurant and amenities it’s hard to get things to come out from different stations at the same time.” I was in food service for years and, ah, that’s what a kitchen does- make sure food comes out on time. Anyone ever watch Hell’s Kitchen? We were eating the mains and the server asked how things were. We expressed our disappointment with the response we got to the delay question. He was very apologetic The food was magnificent. The vibe and atmos were amazing. We were having a great time. Then… The owner came by and not only apologized for the meal mishap, took responsibility for it. He was expediting and mis-heard what our server said about timing of the dishes. It happens and It was a very nice guesture and was appreciated. Read on to find out why our server was tipped handsomely and why it’s a big deal. We were full so no dessert though they sounded tasty. As we were relaxing the manager came up and apologized again and with more fizz and happiness than a 7-up made us laugh and accept some complimentary desserts. We said we were full but she said “well put then in a box to go!” The pannacotta was superb. The Lavender cheesecake was just right and we did take them home after a few bites. Okay. Here’s how they took nearly flawless to flawless. Our server heard our comments about the food

    We are return customers of this restaurant and will continue to be so, there was an unexpected situation that ended up having the manager take care of our table after waiting for quite a while, but they later exceeded our expectations in the food and the drinks. It will not keep us from going back as we always have good experiences, but my four out of five stars is just for this experience alone. I would definitely check out this restaurant for a night of food cocktails and live music
