    With the savvy shopper coupon, this is the best deal in the city. I have never had anything that wasn't delicious and never brought anyone here that didn't love it.

    Eh. Wanted to love it but didn't. Great atmosphere, but food didnt live up to the hype. Shortribs were dry. Calamari was ok. Chips and salsa were unremarkable. You'll be forgotten in the balcony.
