Food: Irresistible flavors, inconsistent variety
Diners frequently sing praises of the authentic, gourmet ingredients that come together to concoct unique, outstanding flavors. The food is fresher than sea-kissed oysters and portions are almost unfairly generous, which alludes to a sublime value-for-money ratio. Yet, some opine that the menu's variety is as inconsistent as a politician's promises.
Great Value
Numerous mentions of great value for delicious, quality food.
Bad Variety
Menu can be hit or miss, and sometimes food quality is inconsistent.

Vibe: Aromas overpowering, not date-night-worthy
The restaurant's ambiance suffers at the hands of overpowering smells and an indoor equivalent of the Sahara, shadowing any aesthetically pleasing elements. It's a cross between an arctic igloo and a desert dune - uncomfortably hot on the inside. Your romantic interest would also blackball it as a date night venue due to cleanliness concerns.
Bad Ambiance
Ambiance disrupted by overbearing smells, hot inside, and overwhelming.
Perks: Friendly service, but crummy parking
The positives veer more towards the staff's exceptional and swift service, along with their commendable dietary offerings, including highly appreciated vegan-friendly options. The flip side takes the shine off, what with their pin-sized parking lot that's a battle royale to navigate and indifference towards comfort in their outdoor seating that's crammed tighter than a rush-hour subway.
Great For Diets
Vegan friendly options clearly labeled, which customers greatly appreciate.
Okay For Groups
Private outdoor seating for groups, but indoor space is more limited.
Bad Outdoor
Complaints about overcrowding and lack of comfort in outdoor seating.
