By far the best modern dining experiences I’ve had in the US. This is the kind of place that raises the bar across the board, I’ll be back tomorrow with the rest of the family for my birthday and honestly, if it were up to me, Mother’s Day too. We went deep into the menu and they truly get everything right. The hummus was silky, rich, and perfectly seasoned, paired with incredible bread that came out warm with that ideal soft interior and light chew. The tabbouleh was one of the freshest versions we’ve had, herb-forward, bright, and incredibly clean, the kind of dish you keep going back to between bites of everything else. The Caesar was a big win, fresh gem lettuce with an anchovy-forward dressing that really delivers. The pizza bianco was a standout, perfectly blistered crust with that ideal chew, rich without being heavy with a hint of lemon on top that made it feel so unique. The saffron chicken was beautifully spiced and incredibly tender. The ribeye, which our daughter completely inhaled, was deeply flavorful and perfectly cooked. The tuna tartare was pristine, fresh, and balanced in a way that really let the quality shine. Dessert sealed it. I’m not usually a donut person, but the donut holes were genuinely heavenly, warm, light, and addictive without being overly sweet, with that delicious custard that takes it over the top. We paired it with the chocolate boudino which was rich, silky, and the perfect finish to the meal. Met their amazing chef who previously worked at Michael Mina. A big shout out to Edgar Fernandez, the general manager, who checked in and made sure everything felt seamless. Esteban introduced us to some incredible cocktails, thoughtful, balanced, and genuinely exciting. Tj was amazing, warm, attentive, and added to the overall energy of the night. And a special thank you to Garrett, who walked us through the brunch menu for our next visit, made thoughtful recommendations, answered all of my questions with patience, and packed everything up beautifully. And then there’s the hospitality. They treated Buddy like part of the family, bringing out treats for him and even sending us home with a gift for him. That level of care is rare. From the ambience to the service, the food, and the cocktail program, everything is intentional and clearly driven by passion, not just business. Unbelievable service, unbelievable food. This is truly next level and deserves real recognition! More on social media: @ratedbymaryam

Great place to have a date, lunch meeting, family reunion you name it! We really liked the ambiance & decor, and enjoyed dining outside on the patio. The variety of the menu is great and portion are decent, very Mediterranean centered. All plates are very well presented which makes us want to order more and come back to try other dishes next time! ;-)

Great restaurant with delicious farm to table food! Love that the menu rotates with the seasons as well. Highlights were the octopus, wings, pasta, and tuna tartare. Can’t wait to come try brunch!

Incredible service and a uniquely creative menu. Chad made sure we had the perfect night with excellent recommendations. Everything was delicious and beautifully plated. The pappardelle was amazing but the stuffed sole was the highlight by far - so good!! I can’t wait to come back!! Make a reservation and get ready for a wonderful time :)
