   It was quite a disappointing experience! We were there to celebrate our anniversary, which made it even more disheartening. I’m usually the pickier one when it comes to food quality, while my partner is more easygoing. However, even he was thoroughly unhappy with both the starter and his main dish. For the starter, we ordered the American Wagyu, which was topped with an extremely low-quality olive oil. The taste and smell of the oil were terrible—being an olive oil enthusiast, I can easily tell the difference in quality. My partner, who is a big fan of Filet Mignon, was equally disappointed with the quality of his main course. Based on our starter, I decided to keep it simple and ordered the chicken for my main dish, but even that was of very poor quality. It’s shocking to say, but the food here simply isn’t worth the price. That said, we did have a pleasant server. Rayan was attentive and friendly, which was one of the few highlights of our visit.

   When it comes to guest service , views , wine list and location this is a beautiful place to try! The octopus cocktail was very well presented and tasted fantastic. Ceased salad was top notch. The only the I thought impacted the rating was the steak (filet) had a very venison taste to it and my other half ordered the signature 10oz.
