Salmon dish (grilled) with steamed broccoli and subbed baked potato was excellent. The hubs had the beef dip. It was tasty, but a little too salty for our taste buds. The highlight of the evening was our fantastic server, Ronny. He was knowledgeable about the menu, restaurant and the surrounding neighborhood. A very delightful young man who was engaging and "spot on" with his service to our table. We gave a generous tip and encourage the management to give this enterprising young man a promotion!

Went out with our girlfriends for a girls night out we got in time for happy hour drinks which were delicious. The lemon drop martini was amazing. We ordered great happy hour appetizers and most of us all ordered the salmon which was to die for it was perfect. Our waiter was amazing and the service was on point we’re definitely gonna go back to visit again thank you

Manuela in LA’s Arts District was a highlight of our visit—terrific food and superb service. The barramundi sea bass and signature venison burger were outstanding. Don’t miss the Archie cocktail or the tequila with macerated yellow peppers. And coming from Southerners, trust us: the biscuits are to die for! We’d happily return.
