The place it’s self was good. Our server however made my friend uncomfortable. I had a table of 4 girls and we all split our bills separately. Our server pulled back my friend’s receipt after we left to find her name and then stalk her on social media. Very unprofessional and creepy. We won’t be back.

Everything was delicious. A fantastic cocktail and wine list. We will dream of having this evening and meal again. This was a wonderful experience and the date night we needed. Get the chorizo bacon wrapped dates. They are divine.

The food was amazing, but the staff made the experience. I have Celiac disease, and the staff worked with me--even cooking my items in separate spaces--to ensure I didn't get sick. The pork shoulder and the woodfired calamari were the favorites. Absolutely wonderful.

Food was a little cold and we were seated at the bar even though many more desirable tables were available because it was late.
