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 Service
Service varies by staff; sometimes excellent, other times slow or rude.
Bad For Groups
Not recommended for large groups due to limited seating capacity.
