Great Spot for Dates and Drinks
This is a fun spot for a date or just grabbing a drink. The staff had great energy when we visited, which made us feel welcomed. The food choices were superb, definitely not your typical bar menu. We had a great time and will be back again when we are in the area.

Cozy Live Music and Special Drinks
My experience at the restaurant was enhanced by the beautiful lighting and cozy atmosphere, complemented by live music. The drinks and food were very special, and I appreciated the nice selection of white wine. The service and atmosphere were both rated a 4 out of 5.

Bizarre Billing Experience
I had a bizarre experience here. My friend and I had dinner, and the food and drinks were good. We were given the tab and left. On the way out, I saw a friend and said hello. Twenty minutes later, my friend texted me saying they had messed up our bill and were now charging her. They voided my card payment and asked my friend to pay our tab. It was a really weird way to handle this situation.

Charming Gem with Fabulous Drinks!
This was my first visit to this charming gem of a restaurant. I was drawn in by their menu and online pictures. Our bartender/server, Chloe, was very nice and made fabulous looking drinks. Although I had wine, I plan to try one of her cocktails next time. The food was so good! I can't wait to go back.

Good Service, Tasty Sides, Dry Pork
My experience at the restaurant was positive overall. The service was nice and the locals were welcoming. Despite being busy, the food came out quick. I particularly enjoyed the coleslaw and mac salad, which were great. However, the kalua pork was a bit dry and not tender.

Wonderful Gem in the Neighborhood!
As new residents to the neighborhood, we decided to try this spot for dinner tonight and it turned out to be a wonderful gem! We were absolutely blown away by the delicious dinners we ordered, specifically the garlic shrimp and Kalua pork. The food was so good and the portions were very generous. The space itself is cozy, and we observed regulars rolling in and chatting with the friendly staff. We highly recommend this place!

Excellent Food, Drinks, and Service
I recently had dinner and drinks at this establishment and my experience was great. The food was honest, tasty, and of quality. The beverages were top-notch. I truly wish I had a place like this in Southern California. The staff was also great. I highly recommend not passing on the dessert!

Delicious Food and Cute Patio
My experience at the restaurant was fantastic! I enjoyed a NA cocktail with the seasonal crab roll, and we shared the spinach artichoke dip. Everything was absolutely delicious! The patio is small but cute too. The restaurant also offers a decent amount of GF and Vegetarian options, and a great NA cocktail selection.
