New restaurants are interesting because they always start out with very high ratings as they feed their friends. Haerfest has nearly 100 reviews now and still maintains the highest level of Google ratings. Given its current Google rating, youknow the food is good. And it is. The tonnarelli, agnolotti, and olive oil cake are highly recommended. But the service was memorable. The flow from server to server was seamless. The open kitchen was very efficient as well as fun to watch.
