Extraordinary in the very best way. Each course a single (or maybe two) bite of wonder. The only bobble we had was a misstep re a dairy request which was quickly offered a redo. Perfect service, nice wine list, intimate setting where conversation is possible. A unique experience that we can’t wait to try again.

The 7 course tasting menu was excellent. Since it was a Monday night I got to sit at one of six seats overlooking the line. The chef plated, presented and described each course. It was a true delight.
