Reviews
They start you off with a complimentary puff pastry and warm chicken broth. The pastry is golden and flaky, and dipping it into the broth makes it even better. The broth itself is light and refreshing, the kind of thing that wakes up your palate without being heavy. Such a thoughtful touch and not something I expected at all.
For lunch, I had the Green Goddess salad with salmon—a good 4–5 ounces, perfectly grilled with just salt and pepper, flaky and clean. The lettuce was crisp and fresh, a healthy but elevated option. The asparagus was another favorite, creamy with fresh chives on top, just the right balance of richness without being heavy. The warm bowl was outstanding too, with portobello mushroom, grilled chicken, quinoa, mango, avocado, a lightly dressed coleslaw, and a fried egg with a soft yolk. Slightly Asian flavors, light and fresh, and every bite so well put together.
Dessert turned into a whole experience. I couldn’t resist ordering the chocolate soufflé, the pineapple upside-down cake, and the warm chocolate chip cookie—all served warm with scoops of ice cream. The soufflé takes about 35 minutes, made by the chef from Bistango, and it was absolutely worth the wait—tall, rich, and oozing. The pineapple upside-down cake was a dream, finally a great version close to home. The cookie was gooey and decadent, the perfect comfort.
And I have to give the biggest shout out to Marcelo. He was on top of everything from start to finish—attentive, warm, and just genuinely thoughtful. He even brought out a birthday cheesecake for the kiddos, which completely made their day, and sent me home with a complimentary pastry and soup sample. That kind of service is rare and honestly what made the whole experience unforgettable. I’m so glad I finally discovered this spot, and I can’t wait to go back.
We came for lunch and were served their special popovers with strawberry butter and consommé. It was just as delightful as I remembered. My husband was really impressed.
Did I mentioned that both items come with the meal?
For lunch, I ordered the pecan crusted salmon and he ordered the chicken Milanese. Both were delicious! My salmon was a great piece of quality fish. It was cooked perfectly and the pecan crust was a light and crispy compliment to the stellar fish. My husband was very happy with his chicken. It came with arugula in a savory a very light dressing. It was an impressive compliment to the chicken. Lastly, we ordered pumpkin pie and coffees.
Our lunch was under $100, and well worth it. Everything was fantastic. We had the sweetest server-I can’t recall her name but she was an older woman who made us want to come back and dine with her again and again.
If you have not been here, you need to!
It’s located on the 3rd floor of Neiman Marcus. They have holiday decorations up, so it’s a fun pit stop in the mall.
The service was impeccable and professional.
The menu was short simple but enough. The food was tasty and elegant.
The drinks were amazing. Not a bad price and great flavor. The bread and sweet butter thing was amazing. That was quite a surprise. We got the pecan ice cream thing and the soufflé which was delicious. It was perfectly baked and just perfect.
This is a great place to chill and enjoy the atmosphere. We will definitely be back and can’t wait for the cooler weather to enjoy the outside seating. Highly recommend this!
It’s on the top floor in mens section in Neiman Marcus. It seems tiny from the store but was surprisingly spacious once we got in.
