Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

We caught the tail end of happy hour and boy are we glad we did. They only have one special but it was such a fantastic deal that we'll be back again. Two steak or fish tacos and a cocktail for 15.00. We got an order of each and they were both delicious. The steak was tender and juicy and the fish was crispy on the outside and flaky on the inside. They didn't skimp on the alcohol in the cocktails, which were amazing . An elegant atmosphere topped it all off perfectly.

The food was delicious! I'm only giving it 4 stars because we went on a Saturday night at 530 Pm and the service was horrible. N one gave to our table for 15 minutes and barely had anyone check in on us. The potatoes bravas, the shrimp and the crab dip were all delicious
