    Overall, I had a wonderful first experience. The food was excellent, the atmosphere was great, and our server was attentive, friendly, and provided excellent recommendations. The drinks were also outstanding. The only detail that was missed was that I noted in my reservation that we were celebrating a birthday. A small acknowledgment of the occasion would have made the experience even more special. Other than that, everything was excellent, and I look forward to returning.

    Food was excellent. Original recipes made each plate individually interesting. Suggest going in groups so you can sample as many of the items in the menu as you can. Service was very attentive and knowledgeable of the menu. Recommendations were on point. Cocktails were outstanding. Try the lychee martini.
