    Spectacular food and original cocktails. Great wine list as well. The service was very good overall, just lacked a little bit of attention.

    Went during "Happy hour " prior to 5pm when prices are at 50% on most items. Tristan, our server had excellent recommendations and ALL the food was excellent in presentation an taste. Picked food that has been a staple for 6 years - Rigatoni with truffle, spiced beet salad, Kefta, Eggplant fry, Cauiflower, Allowed to stay over the dinner hour after 5pm. Dishes at regular price from that time. Excellent experience. Would definitely go back. Advised to book well ahead of date you want to eat as this is a popular restaurant

    Fabulous food!!! Service was excellent. The only complaint and I mean the only complaint was that I found their Scotch list not very good. So that says something, if that’s all we had to complain about it must’ve been pretty amazing!!!

    Best spot in the city for any sort of occasion. Great wine, cocktail and beer selection. The food is always superb. You HAVE to get the garlic bread. It's always fantastic. Their happy hour is one of the best in the city as well. Shout out to Arnold for always giving great service.

    Service was fantastic. I believe our servers name was Tristan, he was wonderful, very friendly and gave excellent recommendations. We ordered the beef steak dish with a side of the bean salad and garlic bread. We were served the beef steak and quite a while later had to ask for our other two dishes, they should've all been served together. Another note, the steak knives need to be sharpened lol, it was difficult cutting through a medium rare steak.

    We had the worst service ever. The waiter tried to take my friends utensils while she was still eating, he threw the dessert menu at us and kept rushing us to order but then would leave and not return for 40 min at a time. It was my birthday dinner and I eat at the concord restaurants often and I was disappointed.
