    Food was flavorful and absolutely delicious. We ate our meals family style and there is not one dish that we did not love. Beef Kafka was wonderful wagyu shish was tender and chicken with apricots and pine nuts was tender with crispy skin. Sooooo good !!! Our server Luca made great recommendation but was so slow. On a few occasions I thought he forgot about our table. Overall great experience. .

    Booked 6 people for a birthday dinner. Wife surprised me with two other guests. Super accommodating with the addition. Considering it’s the holiday season they went above and beyond. Server was extremely knowledgeable of menu and wine list. Best veal I’ve had. Was pricey but worth it.

    We sat in the large patio area outside. It was very pleasant, with balmy weather and light trade winds, and we liked the live music (a solo guitarist/singer). We ordered from the Happy Hour menu and the food and drinks were inexpensive. Even though the restaurant was busy we were served quickly. My friend ordered the local shrimp and chips and I had the tempura fish and chips. Our waitress brought us a small glass of Prosecco (no charge) before our meal arrived. The food was delicious and well prepared. The coating on the seafood was light and crispy (not greasy). The service was excellent. Shout outs to our pleasant and friendly waitress Mahina and to the host Kody. We liked the restaurant so much we came back for dessert the same evening after we attended a music event!

    Lunch menu was pretty extensive; lots to choose from. Service was excellent! Servers were very attentive and accommodating. The special birthday surprise was so fun; a lit sparkler instead of a candle!
