All very good stuff, and an ambience that makes it look like a club scene. ### joelb513 — 4.3/5 · Feb 2, 2025 I love the look and feel of this restaurant, like a nightclub / late night food spot with sleek style, cool decor, and constant upbeat music. The food was pretty good, I've had it before and had better experiences than I did on a recent solo dining experience. The worst thing though is the service was slow, for no actual reason. there were only about 10 people in the restaurant and it took 30 minutes to get my order, but they were very friendly, and consistently checked in on me.
