    This is a typical gentrification restaurant. fancy stuff like duck tacos are special on paper but not in ur mouth. If you must come here, get the esquite salad (great mint flavor!), steaks are great.

    Wanted to love it. Menu reads like food porn, but each dish missing something. Pork, fried chicken, etc should all blow your mind, but all a bit too bland & no sides. Tough competition in this hood.

    If a place puts mexican scotch eggs on the menu you have an obligation to order them. And they don't disappoint here.

    I got the chicken quinoa bowl off the lunch menu and thought it was just okay. A bit overpriced.

    Skip the $64 Lomo steak. Nothing special. Dessert was by far the best thing we had: get the chocolate mousse and tres leche cake & eat them together. Won't come back.

    Food is not good at all, really lazy & uneventful. Servers walk up and say "are you ready?". Wine/beer list is bad. With all of the other Clinton Hill options, why go here? Out of business in a year.
