    The space is polished and well-designed, consistent with other Clique Hospitality venues. Service was wonderful, and the atmosphere during the Wednesday happy hour/evening was very quiet. We ordered from both the happy hour and regular menu, and most items were excellent, though a few had smaller portions than expected. Unfortunately, the happy hour oysters were disappointing—I only managed to eat three out of the half dozen. On the bright side, the Negroni was excellent, and the staff treated us very well.

    Had a wonderful experience as a first time diner here. Loved the vibe and energy. Tried the shrimp scampi and it was amazing. A decent amount of shrimp included. Loved the brussel sprouts. Try the scampi sauce with some of the brussel sprouts. Also….be very careful of the dinner rolls. They are fabulous. But filling. Try them with some olive oil. Great experience. Highly recommend. Ask for the server, Michael. Very knowledgeable with all the dishes.

    Great atmosphere and food quality. Value was there for the money. A bit disappointed with the dessert options but after the great food portions couldn’t have fit that in anyway. Wanted to try the Octopus but waitress forgot to put in order and by the time we remembered we were too full to try. Next time for sure.
