The is a gorgeous space with gorgeous and delicious food. The pork secreto was tender and succulent, an excellent recommendation from our astute server. The cocktails were satisfying and we enjoyed the Verde 75. We even saw Chef Sawyer busy in the kitchen!

Thank you Amber for the experience. The food was atrocious. Both of us ordered the Ribeye steak. I ordered the smaller steak without the bone. When my food was delivered my steak was cold. I ordered it medium well. The host was accommodating and warmed the steak which caused the steak to cook a little longer than medium well. Overall we would rate the food 1 out of 5.

Except the entree, the Valentine’s Day dinner courses were appetizers at best. Maybe try adding a little more than a a quarter teaspoon of caviar on the giant potato chip next time. Service was really unorganized. We had ordered something before our next course and was completely forgotten after being told we would be getting some more oysters. Cocktails were amazing along with a cozy ambiance. For the price, I would look elsewhere for a nice meal.

Incredible ambience, perfect music levels so conversation with your table is still understandable without yelling. Food and drinks were superb and portions were very generous. Service was amazing.

One of the best meals I’ve had in a long time. I ate simply (oysters and prawns) but everything was perfection! I sat at the kitchen counter which is fun for a solo diner like myself. I also appreciated that the bar happy hour prices extended to the dining room 😉
