   Everything was awesome aside from the parking. There were no spots and I had to find a parking garage that was huge I had to use Google to figure out how to walk to the restaurant and it made me late. This gave me so much anxiety I may never return unless someone else drives with me.

   Ordered filet for $47 with side of mash potato but instead received a quarter inch thick of New York strip with fat attached and French fries. Wrong cut of meat and extremely poor quality and wrong side. Although service was good. Not recommended!

   Good food great service. Brooklyn was fantastic and easily managed a large table of 12+. The food was tasty. The only challenge was the bar order. Lots of tickets on a Friday night. Brooklyn took care of us to best of her ability. It was a fun evening with friends.

   Food is always good; Happy Hour is always great. Regular pricing is pretty pricey in my mind for what it is.

   My chosen daughter, chosen granddaughter, and I had a wonderful dinner together after a piano concert and masterclass. Aside from the Sprite being flat (quickly replaced) and the slaw under the chicken satay having been changed (much less tasty sauce), we enjoyed each other's company and our server was attentive.

   Food was alright, but nothing incredible. However we did have a wonderful waiter! He was so kind and always checking to see if we needed refills or anything. Was hoping for an incredibly romantic date night, and i just don’t think this is the place for that, so that’s on me. But the food was just okay. The potstickers were great, but the filet and lobster roll were just okay, and the whipped potato’s had zero flavor. Husband had the ribs and he said they were a 5/10. But again, the staff was great.

   I dined here with my family and we tried the tasting menu, we had the sushi and steak and it was amazing. First of all the starter salad was one of the beat salads I’ve had at a restaurant in a long time. The classic sushi rolls didn’t look overly colorful so I had low expectations but it was great quality. I asked for eel sauce and spicy mayo on the side to enjoy it more since there was no drizzle and I loved it. The filet cooked medium rare was perfect with great seasoning and same with the potatoes. The brownie was huge and had a scoop of icecream and it was my favorite part . I highly recommend getting the tasting menu it is more food than it should. I was so full . Portion wise I preferred the sushi option. The service was also amazing and I like the classy but casual vibe

   My wife’s steak was going great until the last 3rd. She bit into a chemical taste. She didn’t finish it. We told the server but nothing was done to address the problem.

   Service really Bad, they forgot my GF drink like 2 times, also brought the entries and didn’t even brought water at least that we asked like 3 times, bad experience they should give a little training to the servers.

    The crew members need to improve somewhat the service. I requested a bottle of Prosecco, took a while to put it on the table and they brought the wrong cups😗.., have to change them,also no napkins or silverware on it..
