Very chill bar which is rare to find . Theres not many good food options open late in the city but the lamb skewer, mushroom skewer, and dumplings were delicious here. Chat with Owner Mark, he runs a great place

The owner is great, the atmosphere is awesome, and the skewers are delicious. If youre looking for a sit down nice meal or just a place to pregame at before hitting the clubs on Saturday night, this is the place!
