"I love the relaxed feel of this place – like a comfortable dining room in a friends home. I definitely would return to try more dishes. The potato-leek soup was amazing and the Bibb lettuce salad was refreshing. The table was split on the monkfish – one person thought it was great, but another felt that the tastes didn't quite mesh. Everyone loved the flat iron steak. Service was well-timed and friendly, wines were affordable.""See more

"Rissotto was very good. Veal Picata could have been more tender. Is there a happy hour? "House wine was quite expensive". Drinks, dinner and tip totaled $137.00 making it an expensive evening for two."See more

"Wedashii has AMAZING sushi rolls. I really like the Snoop Lion and the Better Than Mike Tyson rolls. I have been her twice in 2 weeks and have not been let down. I will continue to go here for my sushi needs until further notice!"See more

"Lemon Grass consistently provides a delicious, flavor-filled dining experience. During our recent visit we enjoyed the chicken dumplings small plate with our pre-dinner cocktails. They were beautifully presented and served with a delicious, complex sauce. Our amazing waiter warned us that the sauce would give our lips a slight tingle which was smart. Tingle or not, they were fantastic. My husband had the stir-fried vegetables with noodles for his main course and said they were quite tasty. Our son ordered the Korean beef and absolutely raved about it. And I ordered an old favorite, Shaking Tofu. It is always a treat! For dessert I ordered my all time favorite — ginger ice cream — and loved every bite! All in all, a wonderful evening. We truly appreciate the quiet, relaxed ambience, absolutely excellent service, and delicious meals that we know we can always count on at Lemon Grass."See more

"As rookies to The Kitchen, we would say, The Kitchen absolutely lives up to the hype. From the moment you walk-in the door the entire staff is sure to great you by NAME and makes sure to encourage you to have a great time. The evening starts out with some wandering of the kitchen where you’re sure to encounter the amazing kitchen staff who are all willing to stop what their doing and share about the food. Sous chef Gio makes the absolutely best sushi and liver pate and if you’re early enough, you can catch a glimpse of his skills. As the evening begins, Chef McCown welcomes the guests and describes the courses in detail. The attention to quality and local craft as well as ingredients is nothing short of amazing. As Chef and his team start the courses off, you become absolutely mesmerized by the work off art called “cooking”. The symphony of work would amaze even the most keen of the art. The staff continues to overwhelm you throughout the night with impeccable service and offers of “more”. After two courses, intermission takes over where you have 30 minutes of recovery; it’s a kind of hangover recovery where you treat your symptoms with more amazing food. Be sure to escape to the outdoor oyster bar and don’t miss the aforementioned sushi and pate in the kitchen. The experience resumes with the main entrees in which your palate is sure to continue on its way to the ultimate climatic experience yet. The evening concludes with a desert and “side-car” of delectable goodies. Overall, the best all around dining experience we’ve ever had; and we’ve been to the “laundry”, “hell” and other top renowned restaurants. Only critique would be to go with a bottle (or two) of wine and skip the parring. Although wonderfully paired, the pours are anything but gracious. Several courses left us wanted more vino to go with the fireworks happening in our mouths with the food. Highly recommend Chef McCown and The Kitchen; we will definitely be back..."See more
