Such a fabulous new addition to the area!! Gorgeous design, bright and welcoming. Food and service were excellent. A must to share plates as there are so many delicious flavours and presentation of food is wonderful. Only to note as it just opened the stunning decor is all hard surfaces so noise level is high and restaurant was not fully booked of patrons yet. I am confident that will be improved quickly. I cannot wait for the outdoor patio overlooking the natural landscape behind the pan American hotel opens to dine as well. Parking super easy and we will be back very soon! Already missing the “pringles” dish and so much more!
