Here's the revised review with a brief mention of the table placement: We recently dined at Anemone to celebrate a special occasion: my husband’s birthday and our first wedding anniversary. Overall, it was a delightful evening with some of the best food we’ve had in a long time. Every dish was beautifully presented and packed with incredible flavors. The temakis were so good we ordered them twice, and my husband absolutely loved the gnocchi, calling it one of the best he’s ever had. The ris de veau dish was a standout for me—it was my first time trying it, and I was thoroughly impressed. Everything we ordered was thoughtfully prepared and truly a testament to the kitchen’s skill. The only slight downside was our table placement. We were seated next to a utility closet, which took away from the ambiance at times, but the amazing food and attentive service made up for it. Overall, we had a fantastic evening and will definitely return to enjoy more of Anemone’s incredible dishes.

Really lovely meal. The servers were super attentive & knowledgeable. Our waitress helped us select a wine to match the menu. The menu was quite fish heavy but as to be expected on a seasonal menu.

The steak, the oysters, the risotto and the cocktails were to die for.
