Nice vibes. The staff was helpful and professional. Went for a work event, and it would have been really nice if the bar had actual non-alcoholic cocktails. The bartenders did their best, but it's not the same as what is increasingly available elsewhere.
As well, I got the vegan option, but not enough information was communicated to make me particularly comfortable eating there. This restaurant considers the "vegan option" to be whatever the vegetarian option is, but without the cheese. For example, a grilled vegetable "shelf" that typically comes with feta, was served to the vegans without the feta. It was unclear if the creamed soup was suitable for vegans, same with the wine, and the music was so loud it was not a conversation I wanted to have with the waiter.
The wild mushroom risotto was good, but something I could have whipped up at home in 30 minutes.
All in all, the points are for the staff.
