Pretty good, would recommend. A little more style than substance but the Korean fried chicken sandwich I had was different and a delightful surprise. However the bun is soaked with all the sauce and condiments included so it’s more of a knife and fork job. Lots of cocktails and drinks to enjoy. An inventive menu in a lovely little spot close enough to downtown that you can grab dessert or keep the party going after enjoying your meal. Again, would recommend.

I wanted to love it but came away with mixed feelings. The lighting and ambiance of their outdoor dining was very lovely. The craft cocktails were tasty, strong and go down easy (so be careful). The octopus was phenomenal and so was the fish special!!! However, several of the apps were just ok or needed more spices. The main disappointment was the steak. IMO a well seasoned and seared steak should never have gravy thrown on top with pomegranate seeds as a distraction. It completely masks the steaks potential and made it feel like I was at an older banquet style restaurant.

Great menu with fun options for every pallet. We got the tuna nachos and fun mozzarella sticks! Both had sauces that were incredible! The matcha tres leches was my favorite though and very well baked! The drinks were delicious and bar tenders although busy were very attentive and gave great recommendations!

Wild child was an experience. The hostess in the front was extremely rude and had no notion of customer service. If I only had to rate it because of her then it would be a 1 star. The waitress was not the best either many times needing to flag her down or get her attention. Food was above average ranging from great dishes and others lacked taste. The only reason I decide on 3 stars was due to their drinks! The drinks were on point. Try on your own risk…. The only reason I had an okay experience was due to the company I had with me.

Atmosphere is good and diverse. Food i gave us a 4. We came for brunch. The chorizo tacos was not as good as i expected. It needs more sauce or spice. The korean sandwhich was good though.

Wasn’t expecting what I expected, in a good way. Food was good I enjoyed the eclectic choices when it comes to the menu. The service was fine, no big complaints there. Prices not bad, but they can get up there depending on what you go with. Overall good experience. Happy eating, cheers.

Always incredible Been here dozens of times, every visit is on point, doesn’t matter the time of day or the meal. Food is always stellar, creative and beyond flavorful. Cocktails are inventive and there is a nice offering of mock tails too! One key item is the smashburger, it’s perfect and exactly what you expect when ordering a smash burger, juicy, buttery deliciousness with that yummy cheese and sauce. Staff is always playful and precise. Atmosphere is laid back but I have easily spent many celebrations here. The menu rotates often with fresh items while always keeping staples, honestly making it hard to choose when everything is awesome. Love this place easily one of my favorites in the county! ❤️❤️❤️

Delicious, flavor-packed food, nice outdoor and indoor seating available, and the waitress was attentive and kind. The menu is a bit limited but everything we ordered was very yummy.

Very unique food menu (perfect for fellow foodies) and tasty cocktails. Fun environment and went for friend’s birthday. We had a group of approximately 10, service was efficient. We had the croquettes, beet salad, and veggie paella.
