The food, service, and drinks were excellent. The oysters were delicious, the branzino was prepared perfectly, and the pasta was perfectly al dente. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience with our friends first experience.

This was an incredible experience. Shoutout to Ismael who was a patient and wonderful staff member. My date and I had a long-anticipated 1st Date and he was very attentive, knew the menu from cover to cover. He knew exactly what drinks would be suitable and gave us time and space to allow our romance to take over naturally. We will never forget this experience and will 10/10 come back and 10/10 recommend!
