    We were celebrating the holidays with some wonderful friends. Our server was Suzanne who was a joy, extremely friendly. Unfortunately, our friend’s steak was over salted, it did not taste good. Suzanne noticed that he wasn’t eating and questioned him. She immediately took the steak back and had a new one prepared. She was kind enough to not charge us for our desserts or my friends glass of wine.

    Beyond the food being meticulously prepared and exceptional, the service is snappy, attentive and like a concert in motion. So this location is one of the best run restaurants I've had the pleasure to witness. Food was a delicate balance of flavors and you could taste the freshness of every ingredient. Choices were amazing for those afraid to venture into sushi/sashimi. The open atmosphere and wine room are classy and fresh not too stuffy. Chic and yet demure. Your wine suggestions were on the money. The Sancerre amazing. Respect the honest and fair pricing, and your pairing selection were spot on. Rich Baka hats off to you and your team.you made our anniversary amazing.
