Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking only; very limited in the evening. Plan for rideshare or walking.
Dress code: Smart casual with edge — jeans are fine, but lean intentional rather than sloppy.
Noise level: Moderate to loud — conversation is possible, but this is more buzz than whisper.
Weekend wait: 30–60 minutes without a reservation, later gets easier
Weekday lunch: Not applicable — dinner-focused operation
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Limited — usually a couple of vegetable-driven plates, but not the focus.
Vegan options: Very limited — possible with modifications, but not ideal.
Gluten-free options: Some naturally gluten-free dishes available; ask the server for guidance.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Yes, if you both like adventurous food and a lively, intimate room. It’s more edgy than romantic, but memorable.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Sometimes, especially late night. Early evening weekends are tough, but walk-ins after peak hours have better luck.
Is it kid-friendly? Not really — the tight space, late-night energy, and bold menu make this best for adults.
Best For
Better for: Late-night chef-driven cooking with bold flavors and a sense of discovery.
Skip if: You want a quiet meal, broad menu choices, or strong vegetarian/vegan options.
