   This was the most disappointing dining experience in a very long time. This is definitely not French inspired but more American-esque. We waited a long time for our glass of wine to start. The amuse bouche we received was a croquette that was cold, when it should have been warm at the very least. When the bread course with a single brioche was served, we ate it and the plates were swiftly taken away. We were not even asked if we wanted another one (I asked the server later on for another one, but never got it). There was over a 25 minute wait between our starter and entree, with no explanation. My spouse and I both ordered the duck which was properly cooked, but the sauces overwhelmed the main component - the duck. For two of us with a very nice bottle of wine, plus tip, $1,600 later. We will not be back!

   Beautiful flavour combinations. Some courses arrived not as warm as I would wish.

   I took my husband here for his 40th birthday. I had high hopes but overall the experience was very mid. Our table was not ready for us when we arrived timely for our reservation. Service was slow. It took a long time for our server to show up at our table, it took a long time for our wine to arrive, and a long time for everything after that. Our server was a little abrasive, but she did do good wine service which you don’t see often. I’m pretty sure she forgot to put in our fries that she convinced us to get because they arrived basically at the end of the meal. The onion soup was good, we enjoyed the beet salad and the foie gras. My husband’s steak was flavorless. My duck was swimming in sauce. The crème brûlée was an epic fail. It was like they tried to brûlée a panna cotta. There was no crisp sugar to break through, it was just like a gelatinous blob on the plate. The coconut and passion fruit dessert was excellent. Including tip we spent around five hundred dollars and it just left us shrugging at the end of our meal instead of raving about it.

   This restaurant was very good and we all enjoyed our meals. The food quality, flavors, and presentation were outstanding. Compliments to the kitchen staff. The service could have been better. There were large gaps of time between when we saw staff. The bill was presented for example and we were ready to pay but it took about 10 minutes for them to come back to run the Credit card. Another observation, the staff couldn't figure out placement of the food based on the seating (we did not move seats after we ordered) and the starters arrived before the shared appetizer was cleared. I did ask them to slow down the service, so perhaps that is why we didn't see anyone for a while. The first bottle of wine we ordered (at $165 per bottle) was not available. They offered something similar - which was excellent but the price per bottle was $250, which we learned when presented with the bill. The wine list is extensive and I think its more about impressing the guests with bottles that are $2000- $14,000 vs having the actual wine on site. We loved the wine that we had so at $250 per bottle we were very happy but that is the kind of thing that is best communicated clearly before its opened.

   Superb meal. Our waiter, David, was delightful - attentive, friendly and professional. The food was outstanding. The meal was ideally paced. Attention to detail is amazing - my husband is gluten free and every course was served with sensitivity to that. We will look forward to returning!

    From the moment we walked in we felt welcome. The service is impeccable, friendly and unobtrusive. The food was outstanding from the appetizer to desert. My husband declared his coffee the best he ever had. We will return.
