I didn’t realize when I planned my birthday that it would fall during Restaurant Week, but the staff handled everything so amazingly. The food was incredible, the vibes were great, and the space was perfect for celebrating with friends.
A huge thank you to everyone who hosted us and worked so hard to make the experience special. You could truly feel how much the team cares about the people they’re serving.
If you haven’t been here yet, I highly recommend it—amazing food, great atmosphere, and a staff that goes above and beyond.

The food is overpriced for what it is. All 3 orders of coconut shrimp were burnt, blackened crispy. Way over cooked. The dipping sauce was good tho. The Alfredo dish was under seasoned and expensive for 0 protein included. It was nothing special. My friend’s chicken n waffles was literally black. Someone forgot it in the fryer. Still served it.
Dessert was okay. The “cake” reminded me of a biscuit cut in half.
I ordered a mocktail and left with a $70 bill for just MYSELF. For this price people should leave feeling blow away in food and flavor. Instead I left disappointed, and felt cheated. My 2 other friends had the exact same opinion as me. I am sorry but this was my first and last time visiting.

Boy, did we find an absolute gem here. We had many dishes while we stayed at the attached hotel. not one disappointed. We always like to sit at the bar and have dinner. Our servers were fantastic. if you like pork chops, you must try the pork chop here. Multiple layers of flavors did not disappoint. Our bartender was very engaging. We also got to know the chef. This young man is very talented. If you get a chance, you should definitely try this establishment. We will be back.

We were greatly looking forward to having dinner here during restaurant week but left very disappointed. There were multiple items on their limited three course menu that were out of stock. Our drinks took 45 minutes to come out, and they didn’t even come out at the same time. The drink itself was tasty but I decided not to order another round given the length of time it likely would’ve come out. I ordered the charred Cesar salad and what I got was a luke-warm, wilted romaine heart. Staff was friendly, but overall the service was extremely slow despite it being a near-empty establishment. They charged $45/person for restaurant week but gave a $25/person experience. Will not recommend and will not come here again.

Came in for a quiet birthday dinner. We sat in a booth in the bar area. The restaurant is absolutely beautiful and the menu made picking what to eat very difficult. We were finally able to narrow it down to the arancini balls, the bolognese and the Rosé pasta. Everything was amazing and had complex flavors that perfectly complimented each other. We also asked for the jalapeno margarita, and asked for it to not be sweet, and our bartender made a perfect drink for us. Very nice spot, well thought out menu, and wonderful service.

Was rather disappointed by my experience here… based on the other (raving) reviews, I had expected much more and was really excited to try a new restaurant in town. First of all, the place was dead empty at 7:30pm on a Saturday night. The food was sub-par, and the only dish worth mentioning was the cioppino, which had a nice flavor profile and variety of seafood (although a bit excessive on the tomatoes). The tuna carpaccio was completely overpowered by the capers and green onions, and the sezchaun wontons were soft and falling apart in the sauce. The bartender seemed a bit inexperienced to be serving a full bar menu— my drink had *maybe* half a shot in it, and tasted like sugary lemon juice (for $12). Service was lacking and inattentive… we were never asked how our food was or if we needed anything else. The two servers seemed to be chatting more with each other than checking on customers. The atmosphere was nicely decorated with plants and an inviting ambience, albeit a very large space for such an empty restaurant. Unfortunately, would not recommend and will not be coming back.

Love everything about this restaurant- a variety of unique offerings – including one unusual to find in the INW- ceviche! I ordered the spicy szechuan dumplings and hubby ordered his standard fare- fish and chips which he almost ordered when trying a new place to best comparison. He rated them a 9 out of 10! Very high for him. So I tried them, too, but I typically do not like fish nor fried food…but they were Good! And so were the fries. We didn’t order the ceviche app for dinner because we weren’t very hungry but wanted a decent meal to get us through the night- but now we definitely plan to go back and try that and other items on tje menu.
Dumplings were delighted! But way top spicy for me- perfect for hubby who has a higher tolerance and loves the heat. They were thick- perfectly cooked and except for the too spicy for me they were seasoned well.
The ambience was nice. Clean, felt private and elegant. Prices were very reasonable.
Will go back.

Went here for dinner last night. I got a speciality cocktail themed for the Nutcracker. I forgot the name but it was gin, rosewater, and lavender. It was nice and light. My date for the blackened chicken Caesar salad, and that was good.
Sadly, that’s where the good ended. I ordered the Arancini. I don’t typically say this harsh of a word for food, but it was almost gross. The interior “risotto” was gummy, dry, and not good. The flavor wasn’t great overall. I tried to douse one in the marinara sauce that it came with because I was hungry, but it just wasn’t good.
I also got the rosé pasta. They put a haphazard toss of micro greens on top, which was the wrong flavor for the pasta. The sauce itself was bland and split. I tried adding my dates blackened chicken to the dish to salvage it, which did help, but overall it was a huge let down and disappointment.
So, if you’re coming for drinks and Caesar salad, you’ll probably be fine. I likely won’t be going back.
The service and ambience was nice though!

Great new restaurant in Spokane! The risotto balls were SO good. Would highly recommend getting them. The pesto and marinara that come with them were to die for. The jalapeño fettuccini had a light hint of jalapeno and it wasn’t overpowering. The chorizo burger was my husband’s favorite!
We also got the margarita flight and the first strawberry margarita that comes with it was one of our favorite margaritas we have ever had. My husband ordered a full size one (off menu!) and loved it. Go check it out and support a new business!
