    Food was mediocre.Service was okay-nothing spectacular. Very expensive for what you are getting. We realized when we returned home, our beet salad had no beets. I was also informed we had to finish our meal in 1.45 hours since we were 15 minutes late. Never had that happen before. Most likely will not be returning any time soon.

    The food is always excellent here! And their efe is the best anywhere. The Open table app stated the restaurant had $7 wines before 5 pm. So we asked but the restaurant denied the offer.

    The food was good, service was very good, but the ambiance left a bit to be desired IMO. We were seated at a table along a wall with bench seating that was shared with other tables. On one side of us was a family with small children, with a screaming and coughing baby right next to us. And on the other side the table was so close we heard just about every word they said. The music added to the noise; we were distracted by all of it and had trouble carrying on our own conversation. Also, we checked the dress code beforehand and dressed nicely, but other patrons did not adhere to the suggested "casually elegant" attire. I guess we expected a more elegant experience overall. We don't plan to return.

    I've always enjoyed my experiences here and the meal we had this time was above expectations. Migue was our server and i couldn't say enough nice things about him....friendly and a total professional!!!l Began dinner with two well made drinks, a blood orange margarita and a Cosmo. We decides to start with the crispy squid. Crisp, lighly breaded and fresh. After we had a 4 way tuna Roll and a Scallop roll that impressed. It was diffult to decide which one was better. But the really exceptional part of the meal was the main course. We had the Steak Flight. I only wish this was permanently on the menu. The steak was perfectly prepared and seasoned and the sauces that accompanied each steak were amazing. We finished with some ice cream and sorbet that was sweet and smooth and a fine way to fi ish off a 5 star meal!

    We were a little late for our reservation, we called to inform them and we were told it was no problem. When we arrived the hostess was very friendly and took us to our table which we selected beforehand. So nice to see great customer appreciation, very rare these days! Food was good, service great. We’ll come back for sure!! Thank you!!
