It's in a strip mall behind a DMV testing center. You can enjoy watching those 16-something year old try their luck at parallel parking - it's actually quite entertaining. \n\nBut most of the shops in this strip mall look deserted, like they've been closed down, so when I arrived I was a bit concerned. I went in and while it wasn't overly crowded, there were people at the bar and a few people getting dinner. \n\nMy friend and I ordered an array of appetizers, the gorgonzola hummus, lobster risotto, shrimp and corn fritters, and scallops. This was more than enough for the 2 of us. Everything was fantastic with the exception of the shrimp and corn fritters - they weren't bad, but I wasn't impressed by them - just meh. But the gorgonzola hummus, risotto, and scallops were very tasty. I think I'm still in shock by this place - b/c I wasn't expecting the food to be sooo good. \n\nIf you don't live in the North Hills this is probably out of the way, but if you're in the area you should definitely check this place out - you won't be disappointed. Oh and I got the cream soda cocktail - which tasted exactly like cream soda!!!"^^ . .
