I loved the staff and food, which were phenomenal. However, I wished the music was a bit quieter so I could talk over the table with guests. We could not hear each other or the waiter. The bread/Frena is a must-have. It's not just bread. It's amazing with the pistachio butter and all the other accouterments. The octopus is also a must-have but the butternut squash is beyond amazing. It's completely ala carte, so it will cost you for a complete meal. I have 2 critiques. The wine is so expensive. A glass of wine is the price of a bottle. I wish they had more affordable wine. The cocktails were cheaper than a glass of wine and the martinis are served in sherry glasses which are small. One last thing that is an issue for me is the cutlery. It's so thin and cheap. If I am going to order a 60-dollar steak, I want heavy cutlery with longer tines. The devil is in the details. P.S. the server ELON is the best!!
