A party of 12 people. Daniel and Gabriela were amazing. They kept all glasses and plates full. .We dined with heavy appetizers and several entrees served family style. I highly recommend them as all items that were served were excellent. They were able to accommodate a person with a major gluten allergy and she was able to eat most items. Don’t hesitate to book any special occasion with them.

First, let me say the hostess, waitstaff and owner could not be nicer. The service and food is fabulous. As we ate I decided this was our new restaurant to celebrate special occasions. However, I get violently ill from gluten. I noted GF on my reservation, spoke to the hostess about it, spoke to the waiter about cross contamination, checked with the waitstaff as each dish was delivered and I still spent the night on my bathroom floor. I called the restaurant the next morning and the manager, Jeremy, apologized that two of the dishes I had (cauliflower and tiger shrimp) were in the fryer with the egg rolls. Our waiter helped us pick these dishes and the menu did not indicate they were fried or I would have avoided them. Yes, they use tapioca starch for the batter but if Celiac or cross contamination is an issue for you, I would avoid this restaurant. I haven’t been that sick in many years. I was told the owner would call and make this right ($135 anniversary dinner in the toilet and days of being ill) and he never did. I am leaving this review to help other Celiacs and gluten intolerant people make an informed decision. Update: I received a very nice note from the owner about my experience and definitely recommend the restaurant for a wonderful meal and night out.

Went with friends and shared everything, left full and every single thing we tried was a 10/10. The chef even comes to your table and introduces himself to you. The entire is mostly gluten free which was an added bonus. Great service and great food will definitely be returning!
