I love this place I don’t know why the people that left a bad review are complaining. I been coming here for years. The food is awesome as well as the service. All the staff & the owner are Amazing. I moved to upper WESTCHESTER & I travel here 3-4 times a week to eat. A lot of restaurants took a big hit for being closed due to COVID-19 people should not complain about loud music (which isn’t that loud). We should be supporting our mom pop businesses. This is how they survive!

The food and service is really good the only reason for a 4 start is because every time I call for delivery there is a lot of noise and you could barely hear them and I’m pretty sure the same happen with them. But the food is good and that’s all it matters.

Half of the space is setup as a dance place. Romantic lighting, a bar, and dance music. It seemed very nice if that's what you want. But the music was very loud- if you were just there to eat. The food is delicious and the staff is extremely nice and professional.
