    We were drawn to the restaurant because of its reviews and it more than lived up to all the reviews! The food was ten star plus! And the service off the charts! The atmosphere was cool and fun! And the chef:owner came to our table - as other reviews have mentioned - maybe 4 times out of- stopping to ask about our experience, bring a complimentary appetizer, talk, and just make us feel like we were super special (which she clearly makes everyone feel!). I haven’t written a review in years but was more than motivated to share how fantastic this place is!!! Just a wow all around! Try the lamb meatballs, the chicken wings, the talipia, and the butterscotch pudding - oh my gosh that was incredible!!!! And the cocktails… just go - you won’t be disappointed!!! 😊😊

    Service was great, food was immaculate, chicken wings were to die for. Loved the vibe and seeing the chef running food to tables and checking in was a wonderful surprise.
