I couldn't believe he was only 19 years old, very professional. I ordered the Cucumber Fizz, which I honestly hated. I don't think I've sent a cocktail back in years, but it wasn't a proper gin fizz at all. It just tasted really muddy and was missing some citrus. My girlfriend got a glass of Whispering Angel which came out very cold and she enjoyed. We ordered the 30 grams of caviar for $148. The caviar itself was very tasty and came on ice. I didn't love the crème fraîche, it was missing some onion or chive on the side (granted, that wasn't stated on the menu, so that's okay because it came how it was intended). However, I was NOT happy with the blinis. They weren't tasty, they were all different shapes and sizes, some had crusty edges, some had curled-up edges. They just didn't look like there was much care put into them, especially for the price. We also shared the lamb- ordered it medium. Two of the pieces came out well done, and one medium. Yes, the sauce was tasty, but the meat, again, for the price, was just not cooked correctly. I was starving at that point, so I told him not to worry about it and that they didn't have to make it again. Our waiter was great though, offered to send out a new one but we declined because we needed to get going. Also shared the squash blossom quesadilla which I was psyched for. I love squash blossoms, but there was just wayyyy too much cheese in it, not enough seasoning. I get that it's a quesadilla, but the cheese was overwhelming. The jalapeño sauce also didn't really go with it for my preference. Overall, this experience just did not even come close to being what we thought it would be. They did take 2 drinks off the bill to offset the well-done lamb, very nice and for sure appreciated it. But overall, I would never come back. Made sure I tipped our waiter 30% because none of the issues were with service. But blah! The ambiance is pretty both inside & outside but absolutely skip this place. Every dish was missing something. Expected more from a JG spot....

I felt buzzed after half a drink, and I'm no lightweight. The service is average (this is a good thing) The ambiance is very casual. I could see why most people in their 20s would love this place. I usually rate a Mexican spot by their Carne Asada tacos but they don't have them here. They Americanized it and call the skirt steak tacos. I wouldn't call it true Mexican, but I wouldn't knock it either because a lot of people don't speak Spanish out here so I can understand why they did it. The Parrot burger was decent. Perfectly cooked and tasty. 3/5 (good score).

My friend had the salmon- again enough for one NOT FAMILY SIZE PORTION. Our other friend had veal marsala.It was a bit tough. Not family style portion. The food was at best fair.

The tuna tartare kicked things off perfectly--clean, incredibly fresh, and clearly handled with care. The real stars of the table, though, were the mains. The slow-cooked butterfish was executed flawlessly, but the ribs stole the show; the meat was so tender it pulled away from the bone effortlessly.

Unfortunately, the one thing that was missing was the quality of the food. We were expecting much better, but the food was disappointing. I ordered the grilled beef tenderloin, which was okay but nothing particularly memorable. I also ordered the coconut rice, which smelled and tasted more like fish, which was not what I expected at all. The portions were also very small, to the point where there really wasn't enough to share. A few of my coworkers also felt that their dishes were extremely salty. One of my coworkers was still so hungry after the meal that, as we were leaving, he was trying to order a pizza from another restaurant for pickup. We liked almost everything about this place. The atmosphere, the staff, and the overall setting were all great. Unfortunately, the food was the one major disappointment. That is, after all, the main reason you go to a restaurant, so it made it difficult for us to have a truly good experience.
