Soooo yummy! This place was on point with everything...service, drinks and especially food. We started with a couple of fresh oysters. They come with fresh horseradish, homemade saltines, cocktail sauce and lemon. Delicious!!

We also tried the octopus. It was excellent. Loved the sweet mustard and char. Really tasty appetizer.

For drinks, I tried a cocktail. It was really nice and had hibiscus and floral notes. Really refreshing and not too sweet.

For my main, I tried the swordfish and pork belly. It was delicious! Perfectly cooked. Complimented each other. We had two sides. The rice and broccoli. I loved both of these sides. They had so much flavor.

For dessert, we tried the blueberry cake with cream. It was perfect. Not too sweet. Great finisher.

Our service was excellent all evening. I loved the space. Open and modern. Perfect dinner!i
