La comida y las facilidades espectaculares. Lamentablemente, en bebidas no tenían lo que estaba en el menú, ni buena selección de espumosos o vinos. El servicio pobre. Partieron el corcho de la botella de vino, me serví yo todas las veces de la botella, pobre conocimiento de espumosos o vinos. Le pedí conocer al chef (el lugar sólo tenía dos mesas con gente) y no tuvo la delicadeza de hacerlo.

The food was delicious. Although the taste in the gnocchi plate was great, the lobster was limited. All the cocktails were outstanding, but the service was low. They need to improve. Overall, I would say, I’ll go again.

First and foremost, the service I received from Marie mar was phenomenal, she was super nice, very attentive, and all around very friendly. Not only was she on top of it, the other staff members were great as well. If they saw so much as a straw wrapper sitting on the table they’d come clear it off. It may seem like a bit a big deal but my cup of water did not run dry once. I very seldom receive that level of attentiveness. Secondly the food is amazing. I ordered the sensory Nama as an appetizer, the dragon noodles as my entree and the sensory heart as my dessert and let me just say that it did not disappoint. Everything was expertly plated, and very well thought out. The chefs are some of the best around. I took a peek into the kitchen and it is by far one of the cleanest I’ve yet to see. Everything looked very organized and seemed to be in place. Overall I enjoyed my experience. Although it is a little pricey, I think the experience is well worth it. If Sensory was local to me I would absolutely be a regular. I had an amazing time and the food was beyond delicious. 10 out of 10 would absolutely recommend. I hope to return soon.
