You really can't go wrong with a happy hour here!!!…read more The ambiance of the place was really nice! The music was chill and we had the World Cup on the screen so it was very entertaining to have that playing while conversing with friends. Jason was amazing! He was so sweet at the bar and catered to whatever my friends and I requested. He was also very quick to bring out the drinks and food requested. We got a lot of food and I honestly forgot to grab some pictures because we ate them up so quickly! The calamari and the sticky pork ribs stole the show most definitely! The margarita and hot honey pepperoni pizza was also very delicious. The chicken pesto wasn't my favorite to be honest I've just had better pesto in the past. The California roll and the shrimp tempura rolls weren't that good in my opinion it just didn't have that authentic taste. The espresso martini was great! The passion fruit margarita was on the sweeter side but it was still nice and then the dragonfruit lemonade was great! Overall I would definitely come back for another happy hour or just for dinner in general!

This was an extremely uncomfortable experience, her behavior was very malicious with a nefarious SINISTER ENERGY-ATTACHED TO HER! She totally HUMILIATED me. Words cannot express how abashed I felt, being the victim of her humiliation ritual . Her openly flirtatious behavior toward my Man was distasteful and disrespectful she didn't respect boundaries!

I'm a red wine kinda girl so I tried the Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, and committed to the Bonavita Tinto Wine. I could taste the mixed berries in every sip. It was only $7 for a glass - what a steal! My friends ordered the bruschetta and jerkalaya as entrees. For dessert, we went with the mousse and the banana bread pudding. Everything was SO good, no complaints. We enjoyed the cozy, classy atmosphere so much we stayed for 3 hours chatting. It's a hidden gem in DTSS, and we will be back!

The vibe was for a sit down, but it looked like a really cool place to get a seat at the bar for a Friday night drink! We got fried green tomatoes and calamari to share. Both were seasoned well and fried crispy! There was no sogginess at all. We also shared a lamb bolognese amongst the four of us! It was so good and the pasta tasted al dente. For my main, I got the Ribeye that was cooked well. I got medium well, but should have gotten just a medium. For desert, we got a crème brule and a dish that was like a brownie with ice cream? Great presentation and taste. 5/5 and is a great addition to the area. I believe it is run by the same people who own Frank's Burgers? They are both connected to each other. SUPPORT LOCAL!!!!

I had a reservation and it definitely took awhile for our table to get ready despite the many empty tables. That was a little surprising and why I dropped the stars. It just felt like the host stand was overwhelmed even though there weren't that many people there on a Monday night, early dinner. We all enjoyed our meals. I had the Bravo salad with chicken, which was tasty while my partner had the chicken pot pie. I'm guessing it was good since he ate it all before I could have a bite! Overall it was a fine night out for a chain restaurant. We liked our seat by the bar with the many TV sets, since the kids just couldn't take their eyes off the programming!

My group of 5 enjoyed a variety of their drinks and dishes, sharing 3 appetizers, enjoying 5 entrees, and indulging in two of their desserts. I started off with an alcoholic Mai Thai. Food wise, I had their grilled oysters, brussel Cesar, fried chicken curry dish, trifle dessert, and sorbet. As a non-seafood person, it was a big deal for me to try their oysters. I started slow with just their grilled oysters. They were drowning in garlic and butter, so it was hard not to like. The Brussel cesar was also a solid shareable. I appreciated that the salad did not come drenched in dressing. The curry friend chicken was phenomenal! The chicken fell of the bone so easily and was so crispy, moist, and overall outstanding. The curry and impossible rice paired perfectly with it. Finally, the desserts! I could have eaten two of the trifle dessert...it was smooth, creamy, and the perfect amount of sweet. It was everyone's favorite between the two. The sorbet was good, but I found the white chocolate a little weird/awkward since it was sitting around a bunch of cold sorbet...didn't melt or mesh well with the dish. It wasn't bad, but I'd try something else next time. Overall, I loved this place. The vibes, staff, and food were amazing. I can't wait to introduce more friends to this gem.

The space itself is bright and airy and a bit on the noisy side. But the service was very good, and the food was served quite quickly. I've been on a shakshuka kick lately, so I opted for the the Sweet Potato Shakshuka, which is described as: Sweet Potato Curry, with Chickpeas and Sunny Eggs with a the chicken add-on - gotta get that protein in, after all. This was one of the most unique shakshukas I'd ever had... It literally tasted like a curry dish you might get at your local Indian restaurant, with a bit of a brunch flair to it. The curry itself had a wee bit of spice and was a bit sweet - but that could have been from the sweet potatoes. The chicken was served in a bowl on the side, which felt a bit... odd... I would've expected it to be incorporated into the main dish. It was kind of bland and a bit lukewarm, so I don't know that I'd order that again... but I would definitely order this again!
