    The staff here is what makes the experience memorable aside from the food. Very thoughtful, and attentive which keeps you coming back for more. The vibe here is so good, definitely will keep coming back, not only for the nostalgia of food, but the hospitality behind the scenes. Maria is amazing !!!

    Beautiful restaurant - lovely decor, nice little patio area The service was impeccable from beginning to end The menu is brilliantly laid out - small to large incredibly creative mix of California style with French techniques and Vietnamese flavors Grilled Japanese eggplant was a standout - tender with a vibrant mix of citrus and heat. The crispy rice was such a nice addition Crispy chicken wings - no other wings could compare. I drank the toasted coconut ranch dressing Egg noodles - rich and indulgent. Would put this against any carbonara in Italy. Truly lovely experience. Highly recommended.

    Was finally able to check out this beautiful restaurant! I made reservations which require a credit card deposit - but the deposit is refunded as long as you show up. My friend and I both had a cocktail - hers was delish! My cocktail was not bad... but wouldn't order it again. We tried the skull island prawns - it was fabulous! Next we tried the crispy chicken wings. O. M. G. I cannot wait to go back for these! The sauce was everything! The Snake river farms wagyu skirt steak was chef's kiss perfect. I Need to go back soon.... Everything was extraordinary. And the restaurant is beautiful too. Our server was awesome and provided some great recommendations. This place lived up to the hype! One other thing - there is a 20 percent fee added to the check which I believe is divided among the staff. Any additional tip what you give goes directly to your server.

    We had the best dinner and drinks on a Sunday evening. The vibes of the restaurant and bar are amazing - beautiful decor and open concept to let the outside breeze come in. We loved the cocktails which were unique twists that were balanced and tasty. The eggplant was delicious - as was the steak entry we split. The waitress was also very helpful to give us advice of what to order as it was our first time. Definitely an upscale date night spot to add to anyone's list!
