Many patrons praise the high quality of the food, particularly noting recent menu improvements, though some suggest that portions are better suited for sharing rather than as full meals.

10 out of 10.

We were served by Thomy. He was very careful & attentive. He prepared two types of wine for us, & it was really great with the food. I will definitely come back here.

Had the ceviche & fried chicken - both were delicious, though the portions felt more'sharing bites' than full meals. The ambiance was cozy & the wine list is seriously impressive. Service was solid, though not always consistent. A great spot for drinks + good eats, especially if you're up for a relaxed evening with style.

Great date spot, great spot for trying different wines. Reasonably priced. Came here on suggestion by a local. It was super happening. There was a live DJ playing electronic music. It almost felt like you were in a european pub, just lively & so many people hanging out with friends etc. Their cocktail list was expansive & looked very good, but we came for the wines. We had a dessert of the molten chocolate cake which was very nice. The wines were also great. The service was a little hit or miss. There was a gentleman there that was fantastic, I didn't get his name, but really knowledgable & warm. Our direct server was not the greatest, she disappeared for long periods of time & didn't really help too well when we wanted recommendations. Overall a super cute spot, filled with locals.
