    We were in town for a wedding weekend and found this gem through other reviews. It did not disappoint. My wife remarked that it actually might have been the best dining experience we've ever had. Our waiter, Sunny, was top notch. He customized the tasting menu and wine pairings to our preference and chose perfect compliments. Wish we lived closer to visit more frequently!
