Beautifully appointed, chic restaurant. Suede sofas and pillows,table lamps and yes Valentine's Day balloon structures in the seating/mingling area.
Not a lot of self-parking lots outside - only had valet parking.
My friend and I ordered the Carne asada tacos, medium well. The tacos were smaller than most offered at other restaurants but I guess that's what slightly upscale means. Could have given 5 stars if the tortillas weren't as thin and (too) soft that the bite wasn't fulfilling. It was too dark to see the tortillas but they looked like they were blue corn...??? Ordered chocolate tres leches cake served with chocolate gelato and fresh strawberry slices. The dessert was the star of the meal.

First visit and will certainly return again. The decor and space are fantastic. Great bar with an open wood fire kitchen concept. Lively crowd and a mostly pleasant staff. A large portion of the restaurant was closed off due to a private holiday party (was a second bar and lounge area) looks like a fantastic space to hold entertainment for sure. Even though the private party was packed the noise level wasn't over the top. Not a quite space overall for sure due to the design but nothing overbearing by any means. The food was pretty solid overall a few winners a couple small misses and definitely on the $$$ side of pricing for portion sizes. The wood fired vegetable dishes were surprisingly the winners for me this evening. Smashed beets with mustard greens were incredible and the grilled carrots were another very nice addition. Carne Asada tacos came in strong as well. The salsas were a miss for me but the homemade hot sauce hit the point on the tacos. Nice bar selection and a pretty solid drink menu. Service was a little hit and miss but was a very busy night and certainly had some shining moments. Valet was great. Potential for 5 stars for sure. Strong first visit. Cheers.

Our small office had our Christmas gathering and dinner here last Friday night. We had the Chef's Table and it was so fun watching everything and being able to talk and see all as a group! The drinks,the food,the music,the atmosphere were all EXCELLENT! I'm still thinking about the fire roasted whole Sea Bass...I want more! Then to be able to go over to the bar and dance and have a great time was the best! Thank you Quemar! Merry Christmas!

We had one of the best servers I've ever experienced. We had a difficult person to deal with in our party, and she was patient, positive, professional, and entertaining.

This restaurant is amazing, and I recommend it to any and all people. The food is very tasty, the atmosphere is second to none, and the service is outstanding. They have a lounge area, a bar area, and a DJ on Fridays (9p) & live music on Saturdays (and 1 week other day).

Best restaurant I’ve been to in a long time!!!! VB needed this place. The vibes are impeccable and food is even better! I recommend getting multiple dishes for the table and sharing so you get to try everything. There was nothing I didn’t love!!
