Our food was delicious, our server was attentive, and got our table desserts which were also really good.
Would gladly go back. Really enjoyed the ambiance, a great date night spot imo.
Having strawberry and fennel made it an interesting combination with the foie gras and they worked together very well, so we thoroughly enjoyed the toast. The grilled octopus was also pretty solid, and the kalamansi vinaigrette worked well in providing an additional layer of flavor. The spicy lobster spaghetti had very good textural consistency with the chili tomato dauce and bottarga, with the latter providing a different kind of saltiness as it is fish roe. We also enjoyed eating the dark chocolate cremeux tart and the budino. They had an adequate amount of sweetness in different ways.
I thought the salmon was nice as well, and the coconut-lime beurre blanc provided a unique type flavor, albeit there was a bit too much of it. The baby beets had a good amount of orange and radish, and I personally wished there was more beets included. Finally, we were confused about the baklava tart because we thought it tasted like a harder version of sweet potato pie, and the only thing that made it baklava was the pistachio pieces on the top.
Side note, the valet guy was working very hard on that day despite all the snow, trying to fetch every customer’s car with no complaints. We waited for a bit longer in the cold but that was okay because the valet guy was clearly working very hard. I would love the restaurant to consider additional staffing so that customers don’t need to wait too long for their cars, and so that the valet guy won’t feel like he has to do everything.
This is an expensive restaurant. For a costumer to be satisfied paying this much money not only should the food be good, the service should be top notch. If they are able to add a protein to a dish they should do it to please a costumer (who is willing to pay for this). It was not that busy. There were a decent number of people at the restaurant but there were open tables and open seats at the bar (where we were seated). There was no line out the door. I would have been happy to wait longer for my meal for the protein to have been added. Even without this, our food took forever to come out. And this wasn’t the only prolonged wait. It took 5-10 mins for water to be put on our table and even longer for the drinks. The bartenders/servers at the bar were nice and pleasant but it took too long to get served and for drink refills.
The Brussels sprouts were not good and would not recommend getting this. My husband agreed that it wasn’t good. We both enjoyed the faro and pork chop combination. The two glasses of wine I drank were not good (French cab franc and Argentinian Malbec) but that may just be my taste so I can’t hold that against them.
In summary, this experience was not worth the nearly $200 and I doubt we will ever go back.
Some of the pros from our dinner was that we were seated quickly, and got water and a bottle of wine we both liked. The octopus was grilled and I really enjoyed it. I also enjoyed the affogato and our waiter was amazing!
A few cons would be that valet wasn’t outside so we had to wait a few moments for him. Also our entrees took entirely too long to come out of the kitchen and the waiter never mentioned why. I just figured they got behind since it is a holiday.
Other than that I love the atmosphere of this location and all the staff were dressed so beautifully in their Valentine’s Day attire. It was a lovely experience and I would recommend for a romantic candle lit dinner!
