We had a wonderful anniversary celebration! The food was fantastic, the nonalcoholic drinks were tasty, and they brought out an ice cream to share with a sparkler in it in celebration of our day. It was very nice, and the service was impeccable! Thank you for a lovely evening!

We had the best night. We wanted to go the first night on SD but did not have a reservation (You definitely need one). We booked one for a Monday. They did not disappoint. We originally had a table by the front window but there was a big party next to us. They asked us to move to another table to accommodate the party but in turn made up for it by buying us a drink and moved us to in my opinion a better area of the restaurant. The food was amazing and the service top tier. Jesus took great care of us. I definitely recommend and will come again for date night or girls night.

Dined here for the first time and Michael was our server. He was absolutely incredible! He knew every single detail of the entire menu and made our experience absolutely perfect. The Hunnya roll and bang bang shrimp were so delicious. We will 100% be back.
