    Good place

    This place is so cool because outside it looks like a regular restaurant that you walk in the doors to but then you have to follow this path once you enter. Still looking like caves you follow these steps downstairs that leads you to the main cave. You see dripping water. Although in a real cave its humid this place has AC of course. Then in the middle is the bar around it surrounds tables for dinner and lounge chairs. They have LCD screens playing old movies like die hard and pulp fiction and revenge of the nerds. Those are definitely good high movies as they have hooka there too. They also had music playing in the background. The music wasn't that great they played kind of tranz music. I had NY steak which was real good that I didn?t even need BBQ sauce to cover up the taste. Definitely the food is excellent. Good stuff.

    Great atmosphere but eating elswhere is suggested

    Well, yes this place is pretty cool looking on the inside. Definitely a great loungey dark place to hang out if you don't mind sitting in a darkened red room for a few hours. Drinks range from about $5 for a glass of wine to $10 for a mixed drink which are served in overfilled with ice wine glasses. The bar staff weren't very attentive either. We started out with the bruschetta - this was a huge disappointment as it tasted as if it were sitting in the fridge for two days before it was served to us. The bread was stale and spongey. I ordered the salmon which was very good actually but the vegetables served with it tasted like they came out of a jar of vinegar. The chicken with proscuitto and mushrooms in brown sauce was tasty too. Check this place out for it's atmosphere but eat some place else!

    It's hard to pull off a cave interior...

    I have to admit that I was a little turned off by the cave interior and the cheap furniture, but I have to admit....I had the best penne a la vodka EVER. The service was great, and the food was even better. Definitely worth checking it out.

    Attentive Service

    This place just opened and their staff is very welcoming and ready to serve. It has a cool theme, literally looks like a cavern, and the fried clamari was delish. We also tried the tomato and mozzarella salad which was great. The sangria was not so hot though, although a great price ($3)
