Food and service were wonderful. The tables are super close together so when a family with a rowdy child was seated next to us it did take away from the experience.

The food was really good. A few of the items we ordered were amazing, and some of the items could use a little more salt in it, but it was definitely a great place. Make sure to have a reservation because the place is really busy.
