Went on a Friday afternoon for dinner. We were quickly seated by a young gentleman who seemed very young to be honest. The restaurant seemed half open. We sat indoors, the balcony was full. We were warned it would take a little while for the food the be prepared, and they said that meant about 30 min. It took 50 min to get appetizers. They were mostly good. The main meals took and extra 25 minutes to arrive after we finished eating the apps. 3/5 of our meals were terrible! The paella was way too salty, and so we're the ribs. The ribs were virtually inedible and seemed like they were cooked the day before. The fired chicken was very breaded. The steak was perfect and the fifth meal was good as well. It seemed like that night the owners and some friends were also in the restaurant. They were really loud and obnoxious. Not worth the hype and money. Go somewhere else.

I was ok with the atmosphere and the food was good not great just good. I would not go out of my way to eat here but if your in the area give it a shot.
The food was overpriced for what it was - we ordered the chicken tacos, ceviche and nachos and none of the food was anything special. We couldn't believe the nachos - 12 for a single later of chips with cheese and salsa. We pointed out how ridiculous it was to the server and he brought another plate for free which still didn't feel worth the money. We also ordered a few of the margaritas and they definitely weren't 2oz as advertised on the menu. Generally very disappointed with our visit and won't go back again!
Staff was super friendly. Shout out to Kim for making me an amazing Mock-tail! It was amazing. The food was also super tasty. We had the tuna tartar and the chicken and waffles. Both very flavorful.
My experience was really good. From the minute we walked in we were attended to promptly by attentive and friendly staff. I found the food delicious. Definitely bold in flavours and artistically presented. It's nice to find a restaurant with a menu that is out of the ordinary. The portion sizes were very generous and I could tell that the dishes were put together with pride. I feel that the prices are justified. I didn't find it expensive, especially for the diversity of ingredients and the portion size. The atmosphere is clean and classy. Bright and vibrant. I realize that sometimes people have negative experiences and are sometimes hard to please. I'm a very particular person in most cases too, but I couldn't fault the restaurant or the staff. We will definitely return.
Everything seemed pretty standard. Had chicken and waffles. Great batter, bone in chicken was a little awkward. Flavor was great. Drinks were good. Service was average. I'm sure there are better places to eat. I probably wouldn't recommend it. Overall an unmemorable experience.
Nice ambiance and a great location but kind of pricey for the quality of the food. The food is well prepared and looks great arriving. However, You would expect a southern restaurant to be more bold with its flavors. Unfortunately it is not. That is disappointing. The cocktails were inventive and tasty.
Five stars for the nice atmosphere and fantastic customer service. The food was on the bland side. Almost like the kitchen ran out of spices to use. I have had to reach for pepper/salt shakers a few times. I usually never do that. The choices of the "pairing" were interesting but didn't really go together. Scallops were amazing, yet they came with this crunchy mix that almost tasted a bit burned. The seafood in the Paella was very overcooked with a really nice sauce. We did enjoy our food and the chocolaty dessert. Although, I was surprised they would not tell us the ingredients. I ate it the cake against my better judgement but no allergies flared so all is good. Drinks were fantastic, and the fireplace delightful. Overall 4 stars, I am sure they can iron out the food.
