The food and service were outstanding! Truly! It was a little hard to hear my friend talking across the table, though. There was a great energy in the restaurant, but I probably prefer a little bit quieter space for conversation. I’d still return for the food and service, but it wouldn’t be a spot I’d pick for serious catching up given the acoustics are a bit on the loud side.

Love the food. Service was great but slow; clearly understaffed. Ambiance is great except for very sticky (yet clean) floors. We will be back.
