★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1This place is seriously underrated! The drinks are crafted to perfection, the food easily rivals any 7-star experience, and the hookah is incredibly smooth. The desserts? Absolutely divine. On top of it all, the service is top-notch — attentive, friendly, and professional. Honestly, it deserves a Michelin star. An amazing experience from start to finish. Loved every moment!No extra pictures. We were busy enjoying the food.
August 15 · LaviWe came to sit at a bar on a Friday night for a drink, a vibe & an app and this place did not disappoint! The atmosphere is really chill, perfect place to just come and vibe. Had fun drinks that are strong and tasty. I had the Jalapeño Margarita and my sister had the Strawberry Margarita. Also, got the spicy tuna crispy rice bites, and the Phoenix roll which we ended up getting another order of cause it was so good. Fresh, & super delicious.
December 28 · Nicole RoffRandomly checked this spot out the other night and can’t believe I’ve lived so close for 4 yrs and have been missing out on this gem! The kitchen was open until 2am on a weekday which literally made my night. We arrived within 10mins of last call for food, so the kitchen staff was probably ready to go, but the food was still bomb—the octopus in particular was phenomenal, and we also had lamb chops and crème brûlée. I can be a little hard to wow since I eat out so much, so it was a pleasant surprise. The hookah was amazing too, and my cocktails were great. The only thing my friend wished was better was the tea she ordered. Our server Zhanna and the bartender there that night were really nice as well! I can see this place being really lit but still chill on a Friday/Sat so I’m looking forward to trying it out on one of those nights. Def will be adding this lounge to my faves!
June 10 · Peace OnyiukeI’ve been coming here for a while now, and whenever that familiar craving sets in — like today — I know exactly where I want to be. There’s something about this place that always draws me back. The atmosphere is effortlessly elegant and intimate, the kind that makes you want to linger. The drinks are consistently exceptional, balanced and thoughtful, and the food feels both refined and comforting, with each dish crafted with real care. No matter how many times I return, it always feels like a special experience — unrushed, warm, and quietly unforgettable.
