This was an amazing food and wine journey. Do yourself a favor and get the wine pairing (if you drink) as the Somm was spot on and extremely talented! The food was so creative, fun, and delicious. The environment is engaging and fun. Honestly it was better to us then The French Laundry for creativeness, approachability and environment. Everything was simply amazing while relaxed and fun. The chefs are beyond talented, chatting with you while building and keeping their rhythm on...read full review

Amazing, carefully curated tasting menus for a maximum of 22 diners with a knockout cocktail bar on the first floor with a great reverence for cocktail classics and modern riffs.

Amazing dinner experience
