We love to get the cocktail pairing as they always have well made cocktails with creative flavors. The vibes are so nice something between tiki and supper club, nothing quite like anywhere else in St Louis.

The concept is a rotating monthly menu focused on local ingredients, and they are clearly proud of their sourcing. It is a prix fixe menu with options for dietary accommodations, served family style, which adds to the atmosphere and makes the meal feel communal. Both visits were excellent.
