| - The inside of this place is impressive, especially so if you consider that they are located in an otherwise somewhat nondescript strip mall, just off of 485 in Matthews (Mint Hill, Stallings, wherever you want to call it). The staff is equally refreshing, and seem genuinely happy to have you. If anything, they are almost too happy to have you.
When it comes to the food, it's interesting - but I'm not sure if this area really needs a raw bar, and the presentation doesn't quite fit. The chop house may have been a bit better focus, because overall the menu gave them a bit of a mixed presentation, where they had some meats and some raw bar items and some fried food that didn't quite hit the mark, with nothing being particularly memorable.
Choosing instead to focus on one particular area might have been a better choice, which would have (probably) allowed them a better chance to excel. Still, it was a nice meal and the staff is definitely happy to have you, and that is always a pleasure.
