in the last weekOk so the food is amazing. It really is. It’s a shared dining experience and the plates are small but exquisite. So why 3 stars? My issue is with the tempo of the service. Our reservation was at 6:30, we were seated by 6:35, drinks arrived by 6:45 and our entire meal (7 dishes) was served and cleaned up by 7:15. Our server was super attentive but came to our table at least 4 times to take our food order while we were having our drinks. We kept putting him off but by the fourth time we felt awkward and put our whole order in at once, as he suggested. Our first 3 dishes came out quickly, we had to chase down a person who took our almost empty plates too soon, and as soon as those plates were gone the next 4 plates came out. Like I mentioned we were done with dinner within 35 minutes and still hadn’t finished our first cocktails. I mean the coordination was amazing but paced so fast. I get it that its a popular restaurant and they need to turn the tables over but this was not at all relaxed. So if you go and you would like to enjoy a more chill pace, just tell whomever your server is that you will call them over when you are ready to order. And I wouldn’t order everything at once. I would order my first round and then the second after i finished the first. Unless you’re in a big hurry!

in the last week2-28-26 An impeccable dining experience from start to finish. This is true upscale dining where the professionalism of the staff is matched only by the creativity of the kitchen. We opted for the 7-course tasting menu, and every single dish offered unique, phenomenal flavors that we hadn’t experienced elsewhere. Even with the complexity of the meal, the service was lightning-fast and attentive. The cocktails were equally impressive—well worth the price for a special occasion.

a week agoNo notes. Service was exceptional, food was phenomenal and who doesn't love a sidecar martini. Can't wait to go again and try the chef's counter experience. Oh and that cabbage!🔥🔥🔥
