Amazing food. Definitely order the bread. Most dishes have sauces you're gonna want to drink. Everything was amazing

Loved the different dishes with unique flavor profiles. Our server Steven was very attentive, explaining the dishes and making suggestions. Service was excellent from entire staff. Owner/Chef Zach checked on us throughout the night.
Dishes were very unique and tasted amazing. Highly recommend!

Amazing! Located in a boring strip mall close to The Observatory, this is an outstanding restaurant. The atmosphere is... well... dark. High ceilings with minimalist decor, the focal points are the two turntables spinning an eclectic mix of tunes. A simple bar occupies part of the place. The food is amazing! The menu rotates regularly. We had the Caesar salad, asparagus, potatoes, and New York strip steak. The food is served family style, so prepare to share. Service was top notch....read full review
