All I read about was how exceptional the service was and our experience was anything but. We had to ask the waiter for menus (yes, there is a QR code but we saw plenty of other tables with menus), he failed to tell us the specials (we had to ask him if there were any) or ask us if we wanted to have dessert (again, had to ask for a dessert menu). Then, when we asked for our vegetables to be boxed, when we got home we saw he only gave us one of them. So glad we spent all of that money for it to be thrown out.

Our dinner for four was wonderful! Food was delicious. Some had the tasting menu and others had a la carte. The sea bass was cooked perfectly and the skin was so crispy, a first for me as I’ve never had fish skin before. Others had the filet mignon which was also cooked to perfection. Servers were always available and very professional. We’ve been here several times and will continue to patronize this neighborhood gem!
