    Amazing service and food. Short ribs could be their signature dinner. It was the special of the day. If they have it get it. Probably the best short ribs I’ve had in a long while. I substituted polenta for angel hair pasta. The staff were super chill and the bartender has some cool dance moves. Lol!!
