NOT worth the hype; the octopus was way too salty; there were only 2 options for red wine by the glass; and the steak we ordered medium rare came as medium with cold, soggy onions which, upon complaining, were brought back poorly re-heated with the same (now medium well, and charred) steak. No effort was made to improve the horrific dish we were served, perhaps due to us being in young, female, unthreatening company. Absolutely doesn't live up to the name, and puts to shame...
Went here for my birthday with my wife and it was delicious. They change up the menu fairly frequently, but we ordered the hanger steak and seared scallops. Whatever sauce comes with the scallops, I’d like to bathe in it. I told the waiter and he gave us some extra bread to soak it up, which was really nice.
They don’t take reservations (and it’s small) so get there early.
