Exquisite, Elegant, Escape are 3 words that come to mind when I think of a way to describe Penumbra. It’s deliciously beautiful, the semi private seating for our special occasion and every taste of food was made of love and intention. The chosen spices omg the chef is aaaaasmazing! I already can’t wait to go back. The music was perfect I felt like I was in beautiful Ecuador, the ambience truly takes you to another space. Well done! Plenty street parking
Fantastic! I would not have known this place even existed except that AI suggested it. Unassuming, not pretentious, very much a family-owned business vibe, and one of the best steaks me and my partner have ever had! The atmosphere is quirky but charming - absolutely perfect place for a date night. I wouldn't call many places a hidden gem, but Penumbra is exactly that.
Food was great, but beware possible tip scam!

We almost paid a 40% tip due to a “system glitch”. I didn’t see any mandatory gratuity added when we received our initial bill, but when we asked to split the check, “20%” of the full AFTER TAX bill was somehow added to both splits, which would have resulted in (more than) 40% gratuity.

We manually crossed out the tip and added the proper amount, and all was well.. but almost missed it....
