"This is one of our new favorite date night spots!The restaurant had a really dark and moody vibe to it, perfect for a date night. Service was WONDERFUL, and the food was all fantastic. There is definitely something for everyone between Crudo, hot and cold tapas dishes, and some really heavenly pastas.We went with tuna crudo, patatas bravas, Serrano wrapped bleu cheese dates, Manchego cheese with honey, and the Shrimp Buccatini. Everything was great, but the pasta was probably my personal favorite of the main meal. The absolute unquestionable star of the show though, was the ice cream. For $9 you can get a trio of flavors, but there are 4 offerings. The current options were Black Sesame, Nutella, Honey Almond, and Goat Cheese. We couldn't totally agree on which to leave off, and our server advised we could add the 4th for $3. Absolutely worth it. This was no joke the best ice cream I've ever had in my life. It was incredibly creamy, with almost a gooey texture with a slight chew to it in the center. That probably sounds less appetizing than it was but it is a MUST HAVE. The Black Sesame was my favorite. The scoops came atop a crumble which seemed similar to a graham consistency, and it was a great compliment to the ice cream texture. Definitely add this one to your list if you need a new date night spot, or want to take friends to a unique local place."

"We finally got to visit the new location (Granby St just before the Riverview bridge) and we love the space. The inside is upscale casual with some cool eccentric pieces (like an elk horn chandelier). We sat in the bar area at a high top. We were near the kitchen and no issues with smoke or noise levels. Our servers were great and made sure to be considerate about their recommendations and pairing options. We started with the shishito peppers and tuna Crudo. Both were on the daily special menu and did not disappoint. The shishitos came with a deviled dipping sauce that was fantastic. For entrees we go the Butchers Cut (NY strip) and the Braised Short Ribs with elote veggies. The only thing I would change is adding a less salty side with the braised short ribs and elote veggies, it was delicious but a bit over salted. For dessert we got the corn pudding and it was insane! Not too sweet with a big dollop of whipped creme *chefs kiss* We can't wait to come back!"

"We wanted to sample as many meats as possible, so we ordered the Assistant (roast beef, cheddar, smoked onion, and horseradish sauce on focaccia bread) and the Cattle Baron (two beef patties, cheddar, smoked onions, pickles, shredded lettuce, tomato, mayo, bacon, all on brioche buns). The roast beef in the Assistant was rich in flavor and perfectly seasoned, while the onion and horseradish sauce truly elevated the sandwich! The Cattle Baron was fresh and juicy, making for an enjoyable meal."

"Incredible, outstanding, unique. Reserving a table was easy. The atmosphere was very quaint and calming; just what I needed after a month of chaotic work. The customer service was exquisite, especially as E was waiting on three tables and K was cooking up magic in the kitchen. The food was so good!! Left feeling more than satisfied; no evening snacks required tonight. Then finished the night with a few cocktails, including an off-menu cocktail that E made up on the spot and wow; it hit the spot. The perfect warming cocktail to finish the night on. Amazy!! Thank you and see you soon team!!"

"Almost half the menu is vegan which is great. Spring rolls are delicious as are the potstickers. All 3 rolls we tried were delicious, but volcano was the best. Also tried the fried vegan cheesecake, not super sweet and a delicious treat. We will be returning with friends! The owners are super nice, looks like they hired more staff, service was not too slow. #Veganuary Updated from previous review on 2022-02-16"
