Very lovely vibes, gorgeous decor and beautiful food. But the flavor of the food just didn't hit. The drinks were spectacular. I think all the food items kind of lacked salt. We ordered the octopus which was just a weird dish. I think it needed acid. Pastas seemed homemade but again just felt like they needed salt or cheese, or just something extra. The waiter was great and overall ambience was great, but I've eaten better food at less fancy restaurants.

The food was OK, but on a Thursday night with a 6:15pm reservation they ran out of two main menu items which was a bummer.
