Hector • December 29, 2017Quesadilla is very filling. Try any of their specialty tacos, especially shrimp taco. Delicious food overall.

Czarina B. • July 23, 2017Great space! No food, just drinks. They do let you bring in food from the outside. Happy hour until 7pm, which includes specialty cocktails. Basil cucumber gimlet is wonderful!

Tom C. • February 18, 2011Great food, good portions. The liver is the house specialty. Try for a reservation at 8pm or after theater for the best chance of getting a table, or book up to a month in advance for pre-theater.

Natalie K. • December 8, 2019Skip the “classics” page & go to their specialties & street food. Banana leaf chicken & taro puff samosas were great
