We booked a 545 business/friend meeting at a time when we hoped that it would be quite enough for us to be able to chat in a private manner. I did have to call ahead because they didn’t respond via text message for my request to ensure that I would have a confirmed private spot, but however, when I ride there, they gave me the luxury garden area which was fantastic. Mia was my server. Vincent was the one that welcomed me. Mia was very helpful and knowledgeable and engaging. We opted for the chowder fries. Because that sounded spectacular and so different. And Boy were we surprised at how delicious they were. We were so stuffed we couldn’t even order an entrée. My friend Tara I said this is gonna become our new hotspot that whenever we have a business meeting, we will definitely come back. Thank you again Mia.

We visited the speakeasy before dinner and it was one of our favorite parts of the experience. My hard-to-please husband said that the mezcal cocktail was one of the best he’s ever had. As for the restaurant, service and food were great! Our favorite was the pulpo, which was prepared table side by our server! It was a work of art.
