That was our second time there, but we should have been back sooner since 1st time was great.

Came as a party of 8 and ordered every appetizer dish to share, as well as a few entrees. Everything was delicious! The shishito peppers and deviled eggs were actually spicy, and the Caesar salad nicely dressed! My personal favorites are the salmon tartare, which paired very well with the plantain crisps, and the friend pickles (just like dill chips)! Service was very friendly and fast. I would definitely come back again.

Food- amazing. Staff- so friendly. This place is a hidden gem that is bound to be uncovered any second. Would have taken a picture of the wife’s burger but it was gone before I had the chance

Honestly that duck just blew my mind. Crunchy skin, and the meat was super tender. The gnocchi was another favourite, melted in my mouth.

Amazing spot! Absolutely everything, food and drink, is hand crafted. The flavors they choose are extremely intentional. Their menu is always evolving, but I trust their chef will always have something new and delicious for you to try @amp_eats (instagram and Facebook)

Food was pretty good. Beer list was a little disappointing. Sometimes it can be difficult these days to find a good beer that’s not an IPA. Service was very good… And very attractive. Cool, hip vibe.

We were here for brunch, and the food (a bacon, egg, and cheddar sandwich with home fries for me, and buttermilk pancakes for my partner) was delicious and felt and tasted like home cooking. The service was great: friendly, relaxed, and efficient. When we were there at least (a bit past peak brunch time on a Sunday) it wasn’t crowded. We’ll be back!

great vibes, with super chic and upbeat decor. friendly bartenders and a mixed crowd of customers. this place would be great for meeting a group of friends for drinks and a small snack. only complaint is that i wish there was more variety when it came to the house cocktails!

Love this place! Drinks are great, I live locally so we come often. The vibes are good, they usually have the games on the TV.
