Great experience had the calamari, escargot, halibut, mussels and miso cod. All cooked perfectly. Only complaints were that it was very loud, so dark I could barely read the menu and cod could have used more miso. Would definitely return !

4 women friends had lunch here the other day and will definitely be going back. The food selections were varied and delicious. Pricing was reasonable. The Secret Garden is a small, intimate space but felt spacious due to the lightning and the atmosphere of ... well, being in a garden. The service was friendly and attentive.

Everything was fantastic! We were especially impressed by the pork belly plate. It was delicious and fun. The cocktails are really great (we tried 4), although the wine list could use a little life. The beer list is really interesting as well. Every staff member we talked to was enthusiastic and well informed. Can’t wait to come back!

I went with a friend for an early dinner Sunday evening, not realizing that the restaurant closes early Sunday evening. There was only one other table in use, I think by people who work at the restaurant. Anyway, we shared a salad and some yummy pork belly nuggets and then the fish stew. Everything was quite delicious. The service was more friendly then expertly professional, kind of homey, and we enjoyed that the chef came out to check with us. The decor is quite attractive, but simple - no white tablecloths here. I checked the reviews before booking and there were some that were very negative, but I just don't get that. This is a great place for the neighborhood and we plan on returning.

Good food and great service. Clean and tidy premise.
