I was not very happy with my experience dining here, but at least there were a few pluses. To start, we were seated pretty quickly which was nice; I got the Shrimp Mac, and my friend got the half roasted chicken. While I was not too happy with the portion of Mac N cheese, it did taste alright. There was not really that much shrimp, but I appreciate the fact that they took the tails off. I can’t stand when places leave the tails on the shrimp in any circumstance. I would rate it as overall okay, but the Mac had no panco bread crumbs on it. The menu states that it includes this, and in the picture, this is what it looked like before my first bite. As you can see, no bread crumbs. What they did do right was the bread with the assorted dips. This was actually the best part of my meal; keep serving that ricotta with the bread as it is delicious, unfortunately bread and dip is not enough to get me to come back. The main issue with this restaurant does not start with the food, but the service. This is some of the worst service I received in a while at a restaurant. I had to call the server over after a while just to get our drink orders in. It was not even that I was running out of patience, but I was really thirsty and it should not have taken this long. After ordering the drinks, it took so long for them to bring that I had to remind them. They brought out the drinks finally, and that is when we ordered our food because I was not letting them leave again for another wait. You guessed it, the food took forever to come out. I look at the tables around me and see that people who came in after me are getting services first, and there were like 3 birthdays in the outside area which probably delayed the service. Eventually I was getting tired of clapping and wanted to go back to this place doing regular restaurant services. I know I sound like a grouch, but I am all for birthday celebrations. Enjoy yourselves but the staff should not forget about the customers around the beloved birthday people. We also are humans who are there to eat and drink; we came there with a purpose too. If people want private birthday service, they should reserve the restaurant for themselves because we completely felt forgotten. When the food FINALLY came out, I said we want the check right away because I knew that was taking forever as well. Of course in the instance where I received the worst service I can recall for months, they add their own gratuity tip. Oh don’t flatter yourselves please.... That was just the icing on this unpleasant cake known as my dinner. The food was not bad, but I do believe my food should have included all of the elements on the menu. They also charge 3:50 for soda and did not do free refills. I had to ration my soda throughout the meal especially since it took the food three times as long to arrive as it took for me to eat it. I was disappointed; this was definitely a failed dinner and I doubt we will be returning.

It is a nice place with very good food and atmosphere but service that I experienced recently was one star only. I arrived with my family and we ordered an entry for the kids and an apetizer right away. We were waiting 1.5 hours for the kids food and the apetizer to arrive! We were hungry. The restaurant didn't seem very busy and I asked multiple times different waitresses where is the food (our waitress wasn't coming to check on our table). It would be fair if they would tell us that we have to wait 1.5 hours for the apetizer only. We would probably skip it and went straight for the main dish. We had one person who is diabetic and we were all getting very nervous. Then the main dish came in after another 45 minutes. One person got rice instead french fries but they changed it quickly. Our waitress didn't come back to ask how the food was. We were very disappointed with the service. At the end a different waitress offer 1(!) desert as an apology. It was 6 of us.... Then she came back saying that each of us can order a desert on the house. It was nice of them but this was too late. So the service is one star. However, the food and atmosphere is 5 stars. I used to go to this restaurant from time to time. Their food is always amazing. The presentation of the food is 5 stars too. I just hope that they can improve their service. Also, if there is a long wait time, they should give a heads up to the customers.

Very nice, trendy, upscale restaurant with hip music. We came here for brunch. The service staff were friendly and attentive. We had Debora and she was amazing. My sister ordered the berry mimosa, and I had a rosemary gin drink. Both were very, very good. For appetizer, we shared the Brazilian pastel that was yummy. My sis and I tore it up. For entrees, the grilled salmon was very good. I had the braised beef, which I would have loved if it wasn't so salty. Presentation for the dishes were A+. I had the dulce de leche brulee and my sis had the caramel cheesecake with espresso and cappuccino, respectively. This was a great dining experience. Will definitely come back.

The food and service were great. The bread was nice and warm. We has the crab augratin and the Q'tal salad as appetizers and it was delicious. I had a pinot grio and my friend hasbthebberry passion which she said was delicious. As entrees, we had the half chicken and salmon dishes and it did not disappoint. For dessert er had tiramimus and Brule with cappuccino. The desserts was great. I thought the cappuccino was not hot. It was warm. And the was the only issue but I still enjoyed it. Overall, it was a great experience. Loved it.
The service, atmosphere and food were all amazing. Will definitely be returning.
