It was very light and delicious. Loved chef's passion for making the duck in front of us. The sauce was definitely the most expensive part made from duck jus.

The food was really good. I noticed that our food came relatively quickly and our servers were professional and kind. My steak was juicy and pink, just the way I like it, the potatoes were seasoned really well and they weren't over or undercooked and the caesar salad had the perfect dressing to salad ratio. I would say that I was a little thrown off by the confusing and out of place the playlist seemed to be considering the vibe of the restaurant and the kind of food being served. Overall I really wasn't disappointed by the food or the experience. The restaurant was nice looking and I would definitely come here again.

I've dined here a total of 3 times throughout the years. It's always a lovely experience. The food is always delicious and well presented and the service is always warm and friendly. My daughter started off with their buffalo wings the last time we dined here. I ended up trying one and OMG it was sooo good! Making buffalo wings is definitely a craft!! Some Restaurants just don't have it down-pact..but Ltauha is SPOT ON!! Their wings are Dee-licious, crispy on the outside, tender / meaty on the inside and covered in a balanced, flavorful spicy sauce! Perfection!! For Brunch, my Dad got the shrimp quesadilla and me and my daughter got the Flat Iron steak. You cannot go wrong with the Flat iron Steak with eggs and home style potatoes! There is always a party in my mouth when I dine here lol. I will be returning!

Being someone who fancies a good burger on occasion, I decided to check it out, and was not disappointed. On Tuesdays they offer a $20 burger and beer special. The burger was flavorful, and cooked to a perfect medium rare as I asked. If I had a small gripe, I would have preferred fries to chips on the side, but the chips were pretty good. The overall atmosphere here was cool. I'm not a horror enthusiast by any stretch, but the decor was unique and made for an experience that you don't get at many other places. The bartender (Ellie?) was very nice, and made me feel welcome, which some bars don't often do for first time customers. I'll be back in the not too distant future.

Came here for an early dinner - the servers are amazing and they do a great job! Please tip well they are an asset. This is horror movie themed. Goth themed the music not so much at least when I was there. I would have loved to select music for them that is really goth. I loved all the servers aesthetics when I was there. Burgers were really good a bit too pink in the middle but they can put it back in for you if you wanted cooked a little more. Fried artichokes well These were marinated artichokes that were fried and were too stringy so not a fan of those. Chips were too brown as if they were left in the oil too long or the oil was too hot- Arugula was fresh and good. Good Hot Toddy! Dessert was a miss that chocolate skull felt like it was in the refrigerator too long. The bar is really pretty lit up in red with a coffin on top - I wish I could match the music to that whole theme though - If an owner comes across this please contact me if you want me to play up the goth music for you - I have wonderful playlists and would elevate your business - and make the staff bear through it all - would love to see this business flourish so much potential - it needs a more dark romantic take to set the mood like music at a goth club -

This was my second time dining here, and I thoroughly enjoyed it once again…read more After enjoying a delicious meal paired with a fantastic all-jazz performance, I'm already looking forward to coming back. I ordered the short ribs and the five-onion soup again, and both were excellent. The service was spot-on and impressively quick--my food arrived in under 15 minutes. The owner is also really cool; he personally greets guests and makes a point of chatting with the performers to ensure they're comfortable. This is a wonderfully romantic spot. The beautiful flowers add such a nice touch (as I mentioned in my previous review). While it's not fully upscale, it has an elevated, sophisticated vibe that makes you want to dress up for the occasion. Highly recommended!

Well, at least business was "Blooming" due to Mother's Day reservations…read more All jokes aside, I visited this restaurant yesterday for a Mother's Day brunch with a group of eight others. Our reservation had been confirmed the day before by both our host and the restaurant. When I arrived early, I was surprised to find the place jam-packed and clearly overcrowded. The front-of-house staff, along with the presumed owner, seemed overwhelmed and initially could not locate our 12:00 reservation. There were also guests with 11:30 and later reservations that were still waiting to be seated, along with several other groups scheduled around our time. After waiting nearly 50 minutes, talking with others who were also waiting, and watching two other tables be hastily set up and filled, we were finally seated. The table had been quickly wiped down and set with placemats, but it was missing silverware and several glasses. Most of this was resolved fairly quickly, though two people still never received glasses, with one person asking a few times for one. Our clearly overworked waitress brought us water and eventually took our order after a shorter additional wait. I ordered a $6 cappuccino, which was enjoyable, with a moderate amount of foam and a pleasantly bitter flavor without tasting over-roasted. However, another person's $4.50 iced coffee did not seem worth the price, as it appeared to be no more than a 12-ounce glass and was mostly filled with ice. Outside of coffee, the staff was understandably slow with water, with long waits, and we finally got a pitcher near the end of the meal. For my meal, I chose the $16 Poached Browns, which included two poached eggs, pulled pork, an English muffin, hollandaise sauce, and their Bloom hash. Many minutes later, and I mean many, the eggs were properly poached and were the highlight of the dish. The pulled pork, served without any additional sauce, was dry, and the small amount of hollandaise did little to help. The hash on the side lacked crispiness and vegetables, aside from what might have been a tiny piece of chopped yellow pepper. Overall, it was below average but passable. Two others ordered the Make Your Own Omelette for $19, which comes with a choice of three ingredients, the same hash, and bacon. They made two specific requests, both of which our waitress confirmed: first, that they did not want bacon, and second, that they could substitute fries for the hash--regular fries for one person and sweet potato fries for the other. Despite this, both plates arrived with bacon, as you can see in my first photo, where one of them transferred her bacon to my plate. The other person sent her plate back and ended up receiving her Mother's Day meal well after everyone else. The omelette also looked a bit more like a frittata, which I didn't mind. After waiting a while, including finally getting pitchers of water, we finally left after a long and annoying bunch. If this spot indeed had reservation issues, why on earth were they still allowing walk-ins? Why did they tell people it would take 15-20 minutes to seat when it would clearly take 30+? This entire experience was inept from beginning to end. The food this time is closer to a 2, but our experience as a whole was closer to a 1. I would never go back.

I was very clear- I don't need a refund... I need you to go CHECK YOUR KITCHEN. Do yourself a favor and just don't do it. Don't order for delivery.
