Consistently good service and food For this high end type of restaurant they should have a better check in process There is constantly walk ins from the hotel that run in ahead of people with reservations There should be a defined separate method for those coming in who have made reservations months ahead like most locals do than those walking in It’s like a cattle stampede with rude people pushing into one small doorway No other high end restaurant has this issue. Servers and food are great. Even the limited eating time works because orders come out quickly. But the entry always causes some anxiety Fix that and it’s a perfect place to eat
