    Food was outstanding in flavor and presentation. Our server was excellent and the bartender is talented. The restaurant does not match the images on Opentable unless we completely missed any patio or al fresca dining options. The interior is modern. The exterior is subdued at best.

    Fantastic service and gorgeous food. Wine list was awesome and not overly marked up! Super quiet, really great spot for when you really want to have some good conversations 😊 Appetizers and sides really shined. Will definitely be back.

    This was one of my favourite places to dine. The portions were perfect and the food was absolutely incredible. We had the beet salad and octopus appetizers and the special which was a delicious white fish from New Zealand. The presentation was beautiful. We were too full to eat dessert. Zoey who was our server was friendly and professional. I would highly recommend going here. One of the best meals I've had.

    I feel a little guilty about this review. We’ve dined in Santa Fe for years, and the bar is high relative restaurant rankings. Atmosphere was friendly and pleasant, but not ‘special occasion’ level. Husband had the lamb, which he liked. I had the beef tenderloin, medium rare. The dishes were beautifully presented,but my steak was very tough and difficult to cut. Our shared Caesar salad was the highlight of the meal; it was perfect. We shared a half bottle of good wine and had desserts. We have no issue with paying $300+for a special dinner for two, but this one missed the mark.
