   Very decorated restaurant. Neither the food or drink impress. The atmosphere is nice. I think they need to work on more lights and unique flavors. If you go on a Saturday night, be ready for long waits for food.

   Dear Kodjo, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad you liked the venue, but we’re sorry to hear that your Valentine’s Day experience didn’t meet your expectations. Our four-course menu, priced at $89 per person, was designed to provide a well-rounded dining experience with high-quality ingredients and a champagne toast. However, we understand that value is personal, and we appreciate your perspective. We always strive to create a special experience for our guests, especially on occasions like Valentine’s Day. Your feedback helps us improve, and we hope you’ll consider giving us another chance in the future. Best, Management

   So I paid for the couples package I can tell they just wanted to make money they just put tables on the dance floor of a club lol. The food was AWFUL and under portioned. I paid over 230 for the package deal, was only able to get a small cup of champagne for my bf and I, the food was just rushed and can tell has been left out for a while, as well as the random people not actually being cooks or with any experience. RIP off but the lady who sat us to the table were nice

   We’re truly sorry to hear that your experience didn’t meet your expectations The Couples Package was priced at $79 & $89 per person, which included a 4 course meal featuring high-quality ingredients, as well as a champagne toast. We aimed to offer a generous and well-rounded dining experience at a great value We also put great care into transforming the space for this special occasion, but we understand that the ambiance may not have aligned with your expectations. We appreciate your kind words about our host and will be sure to pass that along to our team Your feedback is important to us, and we will certainly take it into account as we continue to improve. If you’d like to discuss your experience further, please don’t hesitate to reach out—we’d love the opportunity to make things right.

   The food was good and the place itself was nice. Unfortunately the service was horrible. We waited 10-15 minutes for our server to introduce herself. Then we waited an additional 15 minutes for drinks and 20 minutes for our first course. Our server was very inattentive and was spending time speaking to bar guest who weren’t even her customers. Once we finished our drinks we waited around for about 15 minutes for her and she didn’t even offer us more drinks. We weren’t the only table that was experiencing this. It seemed like the manager was picking up a lot of her slack but there’s only so much one manager could do. But to top it all off we finished our entrees and she didn’t show up for an additional 10-15 minutes to take our dessert order for the Valentines Experience. In the end we were very disappointed with our experience. We would not recommend the 4 course dinner experience.

   We felt like the waiter had forgotten about us. They never remembered I wanted water with no ice. When I asked if they could make a vodka drink that's not on the menu, the waiter said no. There weren't many vodka options. I got the lamb pappadelle. The lamb was tender but not much food. Plus, it was one step from can ravioli, in my opinion. I added a hot 🔥 paste they had, which tasted better, in my opinion. My partner had the chicken. The potatoes were almost cooked through. He did say the chicken was good. He also got a cocktail 🍸 called the Last Word 15, and it left a bad aftertaste. The food presentation was nice. The calamari was just okay. The batter wasn't seasoned, but they gave you what looked like mayo in a mini cup and a side of marinara and a lemon, and They topped the calamari with pickled jalapenos.

    I celebrated my bday weekend in dc and we had our dinner in our second night in this restaurant which is just few blocks from our hotel. The service was good,food was amazing and very nice presentation. The ambiance is not that much good as its like a restaurant and a disco club ambiance. It doesnt suit well,the dj area is in the dining area on the lower ground,better placed the dj in the upper floor alomg with some lounge area,cocktail table
