| - Came here last night with my boyfriend for our anniversary dinner and boy was I pretty disappointed. I love Drake and all, but this restaurant is WAY too overhyped.
As it was a Friday night and knowing how busy it will get, we decided to make reservations. Upon arrival, we still had to wait for a while and got seated downstairs. To be honest, I wanted to sit upstairs but I didn't really mind. This restaurant is much smaller than I expected. The downstairs seating was a bit crammed up. The music kept stopping and didn't play at times. However, the hallway outside the room we were in and the upper floor had different music playing and it was MUCH better!
The service was pretty good. Our waiter checked up on us here and there and gave us suggestions.
The food was good, however the portions were much smaller than expected. We got the truffle fries for an appetizer, which was amazing! I got the spicy rigatoni rose pasta and my boyfriend got the short rib tacos. The pasta was so good, I loved it!! The tacos were okay, I definitely have tried better. I felt like the food was way too overpriced for the portions and for how it tasted. I also got the Fring's exotic fruit sangria and it was SO good! The best sangria that I have ever tried. The drinks were also really overpriced.
All in all, it was an okay experience, not horrible but not amazing. I feel like I was disappointed only because of how overhyped this place was.
P.S. try to get a seat on the upper level, because it looked much better and the music was really good.
