I cannot recommend this restaurant highly enough, this is the first 5 star review I have ever left, as this restaurant is truly incredible. The ambience and live music were absolutely immaculate, and the staff were attentive and incredibly friendly (More on the wonderful staff in a moment. There was not a single dish that was not absolutely delicious. I would like to recommend a few people in particular that made our night incredible: -Daniel and Claire were absolutely amazing. Claire recommended two drinks that were absolutely unique and delicious. -Brandi was the bartender and she is something of a genius, her cocktails are unique and have a beautiful variety of flavors. She was incredibly kinda and told us all about how to make Night On Fire (my personal favorite drink of the night) -Chef Oscar is a true master of his craft, nothing else can really be said. The live music was beautiful and the food delicious. Brandi the bartender served us incredible drinks, and told us all about them. Daniel gave us a tour of the back after our meal, and Claire planned out and chose our entire meal for us. Again I cannot recommend this experience highly enough, not only is the food incredible, but the establishment is stuffed to the brim with legitimately kind, wonderful people. 11/10

We had a birthday celebration!! It was awesome. Great food, a mix of Asian and Peruvian fusion. You must make a reservation or take a chance at a seat at the bar. The place was completely full and they open promptly at 6pm. They are actually a recording studio turned into a restaurant so they have a live band with a nice sound system!! The food, drinks and service was outstanding. Oh and plenty of street parking and don't forget to bring your proof of vaccination!! We had a ball!!

This is a bit of a mixed review. Overall positive. I was meating a group of friends for dinner and arrived early so went to the bar. I had a fantastic French 75. The bar staff was very attentive. The dining staff however was not. Are water glasses were only refilled one time during our entire dinner. And many of us wanted to order additional cocktails or wine, but there was no server. After our food was dropped off no one checked on us. The food however was fantastic. And the accommodated my gluten-free GF requirements. There was also a live band and singer performing which were really lovely. And added to that beautiful throwback supper club vintage feel to the entire experience. It is meant to feel like you're in a private club. There is no sign outside so you have to just recognize the v on the door and the address. Overall I absolutely would go again but wish that the servers on the floor were more attentive.

This place is phenomenal. The vibe is incredible. The 3 piece jazz group was exceptional and even though they had never played together before, they sounded like they had been together for 20 years. The food was great, top notch. The lamb pasta and carrots tasted like nothing I've ever tasted before it was so good. Definitely worth the trip from the OC. Will be going back again and again that's for sure !!!

We were in this restaurant for the first time. At the very beginning, we did not like the persistent smell of fish. Then we got used to it : The menu was rather poor. We didn't know what to choose. Stopped for Wagyu steak. The waiter brought us to show a piece of this meat. It should be noted that the place was very dark, we could hardly read the menu. The waiter said they only had one large piece and we had no choice. There were four of us. We conferred and decided that we would eat it together. The waiter did not tell us anything about the quality of the meat, about its weight, about its price. Nothing! There were four of us and none of us heard any information about this meat. On the meat itself, we also did not see the price and the waiter did not draw our attention to the price. We had no idea that this meat was something special. In other restaurants we ate this meat for $60 per serving. We expected the price to be no higher than $200. We were shocked when the bill was brought to us and we saw the price of $459. It should also be noted that we did not like the meat, and even more insulting that it is also so expensive. We think this restaurant is a scam. The waiter obviously wanted to sell us the most expensive piece and did not specifically indicate the price. After all this, the manager acted even more dishonestly he blamed us for everything. We noted that we are bloggers and gourmets. The manager said that we MUST understand meat in this case. No, we don't HAVE to. The waiter had to inform us about this meat and tell us about its quality, so that we at least understood what we were eating. It's not our job, it's hers. Moreover, these are just the words of the manager that the meat was somehow special, that there was an impressive weight. There is no way we can verify this! No way! They could write $1000 and we have to pay?! The fact that the manager is trying to make us guilty in this situation is extremely dishonorable. T
