It was our first time here and we were very impressed. The menu had much to offer -- from raw fish to ribeye. The craft cocktails, in particular the Smoke & Dagger, were excellent. My dinner companion was surprised to find the Orange Ave Wit on tap, a rare find. Great vibe and energy and friendly service. We will definitely be back.
Okay they might be open for lunch but I'm not sure I'd go at this point. The raw dinner menu was amazing. The fried chicken was good but I've had better so I'd venture to try other things. The raw menu was a hit, all around can't go wrong. It could be easy to pass on the miso soup but since it is a bone broth this is now an absolute must when I come here.
The food was so good we forgot to take pics! We ordered: - hamachi kama - Cucumber salad - bao buns - calamari Everything was so good but especially the bao buns and calamari. The staff was exceptional, service is so attentive and so kind and friendly. Definitely coming back!
This place is awesome! Nice employees, great food, and even better drinks! We came during a happy hour on a Thursday and we ordered 2 oysters, a Mozzarella flatbread, a beer, 2 wines, and a wine cocktail. Our bill came out to $26. What an awesome spot with nice outdoor seating. Will definitely be coming back.
