The basement feels like you've stepped into another era with a strong mid-century vibe: geometric carpets, globe lighting, and exposed stone foundation walls where plaster has been peeled back.

We did a 3 course set menu and wine pairing. We very much enjoyed the food and drinks. William was friendly and an excellent server.

I really like the downstairs dining room and The Shining inspired decor makes it super cozy for a group of 2-4.
