We visited for my significant other's birthday dinner & had a reservation for 9:00 PM. We arrived about 10 minutes early, which was completely fine. We were advised that our table was not quite ready yet & were invited to wait at the outside bar, which we appreciated. However, when we returned around 9:05 PM, we still had to wait another 10 minutes before being seated, as no one came to greet us or assist us despite us being there on time for our reservation. It was not a major inconvenience, but a little more attention during the seating process would have improved the experience.
Once seated, our server was friendly but seemed a bit nervous, which led to a few small mistakes & some confusion with the order & sides. To his credit, everything was corrected quickly & professionally.
The food was overall very good, but unfortunately, my dish (& my partner's) was not served hot. The seafood dishes ordered by our other guests seemed to be great. The bill was reasonable, especially considering the quality of the food.
We also ordered drinks when we were first seated. My partner ordered a drink that was supposed to have a torch/flame presentation, but unfortunately, the flame did not light. I noticed that the other guests who ordered similar drinks had the fire presentation, so it was a little disappointing that his did not work, especially since we were celebrating his birthday & I was hoping he would have that extra special experience.
Since I had mentioned in the reservation that we were celebrating a birthday, I was hoping for a small special touch, such as a birthday dessert or acknowledgment, but that did not happen.
Overall, we enjoyed our evening. The atmosphere was excellent (9/10), the food was good despite the temperature issue (6/10), & the service was decent (7.5/10). With a little more attention to timing, food temperature, & small details, this could have been an exceptional experience.
Best steak I've had in a loong time! Nicholas gave us great service, very kind & quick! The staff really made our birthday celebration very special thank you! We'll be back

Visited here for the first time last week on my birthday. Very impressed with the service from the moment walking in. Our Server Roberto was absolutely phenomenal, he is very knowledgeable & suggested the best rib eye steak I ever had. It was that amazing I went back again the next night & had the same meal again ! The food, service & ambience is spectacular. Will definitely be visiting again soon
