Damn, I had such high hopes.
Thanks to @PorkyBelly and company for scouting this out. Had a great meal last night by ordering the highlights from their first meal. Thai caesar was a highlight for me, I really like the reference to thai green curry in the dressing. Octopus was solid, but not a standout. Prawns were excellent and cooked well, we went to Ototo before hand and I regret not getting the softshell transparentsea farms shrimp to compare. Beef and Broccoli didnāt really hit the flavor notes I was expecting, I think there was 5 spice in the beef filling? Not a bad dish though, didnāt find it too sweet. Grilled dorade was cooked well and I liked the sauces a lot, wish we had better knives to carve up the flatbread though! Pricing is very fair. Go in with reasonable expectations and youāll be satisfied.

My report from last night:
My party of two got parker house roll, green goddess salad, bucatino and lamb neck. Tap water and one bottle of Topo Chico.
[shout out to the woman at table next to us talking with server about the difficulties of purchasing unknown cans of booze at Erewhon. Madame, you made this middle aged lady giggle.]
Not to be too punny, but Iām echoing the other comments. The music is damn loud.
My parker house roll was soft and delightful, with fully spiced and flavored fresno butter. One of my table runners mumbled descriptions and bolted off, the other took his time, repeated back the food order reminding us what we were about to eat.
I loved the bucatino and would happily go back for it. The absolute dream would be for it to come as chewy as the noodles at DX LAB.

Had a pretty dope meal here tonight. 4 folks, Thai cesar was in fact delicious. Lamb neck was great and shockingly cheap? In total we came out 40 pre tip with a drink each. Also really enjoyed the beef and broccoli ravioli
Only miss for us was the chochoyotes. Great flavor on the sauce but couldāve used more things to dip into the curry, maybe even some raw veggies

I wouldnāt expect someone who wrote an article that long with so few of its words describing the food to have much interest in a forum like this.

Yeah Iām sure this has been expressed a few times around this forum (I know Iāve said something like it) but the infatuation is not a good website imo, I say feel free to dunk on them anytime.

Glad to find out it was a server change that caused the erasure! Was worried for a second that my dislike of the bucatino got me booted
