    Loved the ambience and the service. They have two different tartares that were ok, the beef one was underwhelming. There was nothing to put the tartare on. You just dip it out with a spoon… We also got a 20 ounce steak, but the cut wasn’t very great super fatty. I feel like they could learn something from Bliss. Nothing wrong with the service or the ambience. I just think that tartare belongs on something not just dipped with a spoon straight to the mouth. and if the steak is that expensive maybe more meat less fat. Also tiny menu.

    The wait staff was excellent. There was no wait time before being seated. The food was absolutely superb. My wife had the Wagyu ribeye and we both agreed that it was the best steak we’ve ever tasted. I had the Red Snapper and it was cooked to perfection. The liquor/wine menu was the most extensive we’ve ever seen. The bread was delicious, made from a 10 yr old sourdough starter. It was without a doubt one of our most unique dining experiences in 45 years of marriage. We would unequivocally recommend this restaurant to everyone. Thank you for a beautiful evening.

    We’ve experienced a lot of unique dining experiences, but this one was special. The charred beets with 3-month slow cooked peaches were intensely flavorful and unlike anything I’ve tasted. My wife and I picked the Texas wine tasting menu which the staff and sommelier adapted to be vegetarian for me, and we really enjoyed ourselves. The host and servers were very kind. Overall it was an excellent dining experience.

    The bread and butter ritual and story is staggeringly good. The rest of the food is too.
