I'm sorry I didn't take pictures. I was so ravenous and the food was unbelievable I kept chomping. The duck, the beef tartare, kale salad, and octopus were fantastic. Possibly so e of the best Brussels sprouts ever. This place is a hidden gem....shhhh
Good was simple, and perfectly executed. The service got REALLY weird after a bit. We asked if there was a reservation on our table, she snapped "yes". The restaurant wasn't very busy. I guess we pissed her off. Not sure what we did, but it put a damper on a birthday dinner...
The brunch service was so disappointing. Our appetizers were never put in the system, so didn’t come (they were comped), the main dishes were so staggered that we had almost finished by the time the last dish arrived. Drink service was slow so we only ordered one round. To top it off, it was nearly $200 for brunch for 4 people (with comped apps!!!). Too many other choices in the area to repeat this place.
Side note: we had been for dinner previously and it was fine, but we’re unlikely to return.
Clean delicate food in a warm setting. Good for brunch with a smaller group.
Pros:
-Food had definitely been prepared with thought. Everything on the menu has been meticulously placed together
-Service. Attentive waitresses (although it wasn't too busy when we went)
Cons:
-the servings are a bit small, especially for the price. But it's quality over quantity here
Delicious meal, excellent cocktails and friendly server. Dinner was a series of small to medium plates to share between party of four, and eventually we tried most of the menu. Not cheap, but prices were typical for this type of food and acceptable. Hamachi was worth the trip by itself and the BBQ kohlrabi sounded weird and tasted terrific. Very creative menu. I doubt I have EVER seen kohlrabi on a restaurant menu before in my life. (No slander of their desserts, but after dinner we walked a block to Ample Hills for ice cream. Well worth it!)
