I dined here with 2 colleagues. We are in the food and hospitality industry. This place knocked our socks off. We tried 10 plates and a few craft cocktails, and this was one of the best food experiences we have had in a quite awhile. We dine weekly at restaurants across the country. Yes I am very lucky. Melissa was our server she was great. Linda the manager spent time with us and gave us the great back story of the restaurant.

The food was yummy, and the service was awesome! I needed to change my reservations from two to four, and the gentleman on the phone (I think his name was Jason) was very friendly and assured me that he had changed the reservations. The waitress (Fiona) was very attentive and friendly as well. She knew that it was our first time there, and she took her time to explain the menu and provided recommendations. The food came out amazing, and we enjoyed it thoroughly. We would recommend this restaurant and will totally come back!

Such a beautiful and inviting restaurant. The food was absolutely amazing. Everything on the menu is a must try. Very easy to make a reservation and fairly good availability if you book ahead. Outside patio is gorgeous and heated in case you do you want to sit outside.

From the moment I walked in until I got into my car, I was made to feel so welcome, received such kind, attentive, and friendly service, and the food I ordered [including dessert] was absolutely delicious! Go there, just go there.

Went for lunch for my sister's birthday. Friendly and helpful, but unobtrusive service. 3 out of the 4 apps we shared were 5 stars, the remaining was 4. The seabass, however, was well above par. Delicious, perfectly cooked, and my only complaint was that there wasn't more in the plate. I very highly recommend this place.

Great food, great service. Bartenders are well versed in drink mixing what is not on the menu. Had a great company party here.

So I got to try Indo last night and the first thing that jumps to my mind is Not So. Why you might ask, the challenge for Indo a self proclaimed Indonesia fusion restaurant, it tries to cater to a wide range of taste buds . That might be good for potential revenue but not for the food experience. It's not that dishes are bad, but they are americanized to the 10th degree. The menu spawns across Indonesian, Thai some Indian and some Chinese dishes. Again I get the concept but you need to work on the authenticity. The food presentation was nice, the service friendly and most attentive but the flavours were just nowhere to be found. The green papaya salad was neither green nor did it have the unique crisp taste accompanied with a hint of fish sauce, chilies, tomatoes and peanuts. It was rather sad looking and left no joy on my pallet. For the main course I ordered the spicy basil chicken, a dish which you can get on most street corners in Thailand. I asked the waiter if the chicken was prepared spicy. He pointed to the papaya salad as a comparison. As a result I asked him if he could make that chicken really spicy. As you guys know neither Indonesian nor Thai kitchens are strangers to beautiful deep chilly flavors. Well I was promised and eventually the chicken arrived... It was so bland, not a hint of pepper or chilies. Certainly I asked the waiter if I could get a side of chilly flakes to spice it up. I was brought a small bowl and warned that this would be super spicy. Well guess what it was as bland as the chicken .. My heart cries out, if you claim to bring south east Asian dishes to the bay, then please try to bring the flavours along. I get that food is americanized in the US but do you really need to completely forget the heritage of the kitchens you are promoting?
