The delicious food, creative bar menu, rooftop views and super cool vibe and decor make it a must do in Waco. Super close to Baylor University and the perfect place for a date night or special event. The banquet space is stunning!

This place is fantastic! The style is tapas and small plates which is really cool because you can try lots of different things. The food was well thought out in my opinion. The components made sense and added or elevated the foods. The roasted beets were just amazing. The bacon wrapped shrimp was enormous, but the cook on it was spot on. The chicken skewer was super tender, moist, and full of flavor. They have a new dessert, the cheesecake mousse, and the sweet potato butter is wizardry. The decor is to me a mix of art deco with well placed luxurious accent pieces like the giant scallop shell that hangs over the hostess stand in the back. Great lighting, nice chairs and booth arrangements, and patient servers that can answer questions about the menu and make recommendations. It's a bit on the pricey side but the quality is worth it. Check it out if you can.

Great food, smaller portion sizes, very much a “order lots of appetizers as your meal” type of place. Great ambience and wait staff! Neat place!

We ate here for the 1st time and definitely will be back. My husband got us the chefs table for my birthday, and it is worth it! First off our server Nolan was amazing. He is so friendly and helpful with everything. The chefs also did not disappoint, especially Chef Katy's shrimp dish, and Chef Joels aquachilie. Thank you so much to the whole staff for making this a special experience overall.
