   Nearly flawless, but then flawless. Hang with me a minute. First time here and we were sat immediately with a smile and warm welcome. We had the wagyu and tuna apps and wow. Magnificent. Flavors galore. The waiter took our entire order and promised to bring everything out in sequence and so far that is what happened. Then… my dining partner got their main (burger and mashed potatoes) and I… well… didn’t feet my order for another five minutes. The burger was going cood and I was without food. Never a good thing. When my duck (some of the best I’ve ever had) arrived I asked what the delay was and the response was “we are a share plates restaurant and amenities it’s hard to get things to come out from different stations at the same time.” I was in food service for years and, ah, that’s what a kitchen does- make sure food comes out on time. Anyone ever watch Hell’s Kitchen? We were eating the mains and the server asked how things were. We expressed our disappointment with the response we got to the delay question. He was very apologetic The food was magnificent. The vibe and atmos were amazing. We were having a great time. Then… The owner came by and not only apologized for the meal mishap, took responsibility for it. He was expediting and mis-heard what our server said about timing of the dishes. It happens and It was a very nice guesture and was appreciated. Read on to find out why our server was tipped handsomely and why it’s a big deal. We were full so no dessert though they sounded tasty. As we were relaxing the manager came up and apologized again and with more fizz and happiness than a 7-up made us laugh and accept some complimentary desserts. We said we were full but she said “well put then in a box to go!” The pannacotta was superb. The Lavender cheesecake was just right and we did take them home after a few bites. Okay. Here’s how they took nearly flawless to flawless. Our server heard our comments about the food

   We are return customers of this restaurant and will continue to be so, there was an unexpected situation that ended up having the manager take care of our table after waiting for quite a while, but they later exceeded our expectations in the food and the drinks. It will not keep us from going back as we always have good experiences, but my four out of five stars is just for this experience alone. I would definitely check out this restaurant for a night of food cocktails and live music

   Disappointed in the food here. Calamari was some of the worst I’ve had. We also got the very underwhelming burger. The uber drinks were very amazing though. Won’t recommend to friends and family. Sorry!

   We had the margarita which was perfectly balanced. Not too sweet. Smash burger was ridiculous, so were the bao buns. Everything was interesting and delicious. Great place.

   Brunch is as delicious as dinner. One of our go to spots in SD and it literally never disappoints. Smoked salmon and potato latkes are amazing.

   Wonderfully creative but delicious, satisfying food and drinks. The live music was the cherry on top.

    Beautiful restaurant with tasty and aesthetically pleasing food and drinks. I love their tableware and glassware; very cute + classy. Service wasn’t very fast but they were busy and plus they gave me a birthday treat which was a nice surprise. Lively atmosphere with a live band playing by the bar. Overall my friend and I had a wonderful experience; I will definitely be back.
