From the speciality canapés to the soft shell crab and the fluke, I was absolutely blown away. The thought and intention behind the food as well as their drinks is incredibly fascinating. Thank you to the head sous chef Dalton Ferguson for making sure everything was perfect. 10/10 If you haven’t been I promise you’re missing out.“

My friends also said their food was decent. I guess I caught everyone on a good night bc these reviews were making me second guess my choice. I will be coming back for brunch!🙂‍↔️“
