    Had a fantastic time! We went specifically because of the costume party that night. The food was unexpectedly incredible. Highly impressed. Varied flavors and exotic ingredients! Very well put together. Service was OK. Not subpar but a little lacking on the “above and beyond” category. Highly recommend for your next gastronomic experience.
