We came for my husband's birthday. Upon arrival, they handed him a birthday card signed by all of the staff! What a nice touch! Multiple people stopped by the table to wish him happy birthday as well. The cocktails were DELICIOUS, the apps came out quickly, and the entrees were to die for. We ordered the Japanese maple and espresso martini, the skewers, queso and wonton chips, the chicken tacos, and the thai noodles salad (which was massive and even tastier for lunch the next day). We will be back for sure.

    Fantastic experience worth every bit! The staff were the highlight next to the food. Kesha was such a joy of a waitress and really coordinated such an experience. Everyone that helped serve was spot on with everything they did and they deserve praise!
