Really enjoyed getting dinner here. We opted to sit outside as the weather was nice. Menu highlights included the pimento cheese croquettes and the shaved Brussels salad. Unfortunately the grilled octopus was over-charred, so we did not eat most of it, but I included a picture because it was beautifully presented. The hanger steak main was alright. The steak was a little cold by the time it arrived, but it packed big flavors. As a note, the crying tiger sauce is fish sauce based, and while it was tasty it brought a different dimension to the plate. The seared Florida grouper was beautifully cooked and was far superior to the steak plate. I found two bones in my fish, but other than that it was a perfect plate with balanced flavors. For dessert we opted for the butter cake with an extra side of blueberry ice-cream, and both were tasty as well. The final highlight was our server. Allegra offered great recommendations and assisted us on our culinary journey, including the suggestion to try the Devil’s Den, a wonderfully spiced tequila based cocktail. Over all it was a good dining experience. As other reviewers have mentioned, portions are a little small for the price, but since I was aware of that before choosing to go there I was not surprised. We spent around $300 total for 6 cocktails and 5 dishes. I look forward to returning again in the future.

Our meal was absolutely phenomenal! This was my first time back in a few years and the food is even more amazing now than it was before! The service was top notch and the signature cocktails did not disappoint! I highly recommend and won’t be waiting a year before coming back for more. 10/10 thank you for another great dining experience!

The staff made this meal. Love from
the kitchen and the suggestion of a bone marrow luge and ability to come thru on a request for a pisco sour from the bartender waiter that took care of us. I wish we had ordered at least one entree to share but these dishes were a great first experience for me and my two guests. See the menu highlights for specifics but here is a run down. Pimiento Cheese, potato crusted oysters, little gem salad, avocado leaf seared yellow tuna, roasted bone marrow, grilled octopus, butter cake with popcorn ice cream. Drink highlights included the CBD cocktail, Pisco Sour and the Cardamaro which paired so well with dessert. Oh and special nod to the bread served with the bone marrow. We had no choice but to order more. Thanks for what you do!!

We ate here for a business dinner (3 of us) and it was delicious. We did the tasting menu with wine pairings and the flavors and perfect wine pours were well worth it. Our server was excellent as well and the staging of the tastings was perfect, not too rapid but we also weren't starving.
I would go here again and try it without the tasting menu just to try other things.
Parking is a little bit of a challenge.

Me & the wife have been coming for our anniversary the past 4 years… I think I left a great review the first time I came but after today I have to change it.
Every year since our first time here has been slowly getting worse… unfortunately it’s never been as amazing as our first experience. The food the first time we tried it felt out of this world and so different. After today, we decided we won’t be coming back..
The chicken my wife ordered was dry and tasteless. The burger I ordered was so greasy the bottom bun was falling apart… and I couldn’t even have more than 3 fries because they were soggy & wet from all the oil. I get it, it’s not a burger spot so what was I thinking… maybe I was hoping for an explosion of flavor. I rarely get the chance to eat a good burger so I save those days for special occasions..
It was a Saturday night and in the past, we used to have to make reservations to dine here. The restaurant felt empty.. I was extremely surprised.
For the price of the burger, I would have expected something completely different. Part of me just wanted to eat the meat because it was the only thing with flavor. The toppings and bread are a compliment to a burger, and this one’s toppings were awful. There was no crunch (the fried onions were soggy) or maybe other flavors to balance out the saltiness. No freshness to the burger. It didn’t even have sauce from what I could taste.
My recommendation would be to remove it from the menu and just stick to a fine dining experience. I should have stuck to my first option and tried the lamb… very disappointed.
