The ice spice cocktail was tasty. We ordered the spicy salmon , the chicken dumpling tortilla soup spoons and Kale & Apple salad to start. The salad took 1st place in that group- with the soup spoons coming in 2nd (they should be served a bit warmer in our opinion) the Beef Wellington was nicely done and scallops were cooked nicely. Side of Polenta and crispy eggplant were equivalent to tossing money out the window- probably a one and done for me here. Coming thru the pawn shop is an interesting touch- lady at that counter was interesting.

I walked by this place for years and never walked in. This place wasn’t only gorgeous, it was everything you expect from a nice restaurant. We sat at the bar to grab a drink but we ended up staying and had food. Everything was delicious, drinks were amazing and the guys behind the bar are incredible!!

Enter through what looks like a pawn shop in an unimpressive building and it's like narnia as inside is a beautifully set out and decorated restaurant. The food was absolutely amazing, great selection and quality.

Such a cool speakeasy bar - came for the amazing happy hour deal for BOGO cocktails. The cocktails were incredible. Decided to get some apps - the steak tartare and chicken meatballs were AMAZING. I consider myself a big foodie and these were top notch. Beyond food and drinks, the atmosphere was great, moody, and romantic. Couldn't recommend this place more

Have dined here many times with friends, and always a good experience. Depending on what one you’re going to in what city, it’s often a recommendation I give. Thanks again.

Decided to celebrate my daughter’s b-day. This is not a restaurant you would ever need to go back to twice.We had to constantly look for our server, at one point we just asked anyone who passed our table. The food was always cold. We ordered the special Tomahawk steak - cold, sliced thin, was not 36oz. The chef basically took an old bone and placed a 16oz strip steak next to it and camouflage it with some sort of fried onion bits. So sad! We couldn’t bare to stay for dessert.I would save your money, there are so many other amazing restaurants with great atmosphere, delicious well prepared dishes, served hot, and impeccable service.
