    Our first time here and we LOVED IT! The place is quite stunning, and has different areas. They even offer you complimentary sparkling wine when you walk in. Our server was Stephanie and she was very sweet and attentive. Management is great, Bri the manager since the moment we walked in greeted us and we chatted for a bit. She would come to our table often to make sure we were doing well. The food was spectacular. I def recommend the chicken lettuce wraps and the ravioli with steak! Delicious and will be back!

    Enjoyed a wonderful dinner of Mie Goreng with Tofu and Pecel (we split both). So tasty and made to perfection for both my friend (who likes no spice) and me with added hot chili sauce (who likes spice galore). Keisha was a delightful server.
