    The standard of food has decreased drastically in the past 1 year. I wouldn’t go back to this place again.

    We went here to celebrate a birthday and made sure to mention the occasion in the reservation notes. Unfortunately, at no point during our dinner did anyone acknowledge it. I eventually had to approach the staff myself and ask if they could bring out a birthday dessert, which I was more than willing to pay for if needed. It was a little disappointing to have to request something that had already been noted with the reservation. The food was good, but the service could have been much better—especially for a restaurant of this style and price point. Overall, the experience was fine, but the service didn’t quite match the level I expected.

    Service was very slow considering restaurant wasn’t full. They didn’t even acknowledge that we were celebrating an anniversary which we noted on the reservation

    Dishes tasted the same sauce over spicy and greasy. Chicken app was cold.
