Every detail of this restaurant felt thoughtful and elevated. From the glassware to the plates to the painting on the walls and plants. The chef personally came over to our table and was so pleasant and welcoming, which made the evening feel even more special and intimate.
The Avicii playlist throughout dinner was such a nostalgic and upbeat touch. The perfect atmosphere balancing luxury dining with a fun, modern energy. The amuse-bouche apple tea was unbelievably delicious...
We had the tasting menu and it was among the best meals we have had. Exquisite tastes of wide range of food, seafood and meats, great presentation and wonderful service. We will be returning soon. Highly recommend.
Celebrated my fiancés birthday here. It was our first tasting menu and it sure set the bar high! I ate everything! All the dishes had such great flavor and creativity. Totally recommend!
