    The food (tasting menu) was decent but not outstanding. I would not order anything a second time. The beverage pairing was not impressive, and the waiter forgot to bring a wine glass that was part of it. The noise was deafening -- I could not understand what the waiter said. The price is reasonable, but I expected better.

    Wow, everything about this place is great. The service was outstanding, with the waiter very familiar with all the items on the menu, and suggested wine pairings. The food was perfectly delicious in everyway. Would highly recommend the grilled oysters and the eggplant. I generally don't like grilled oysters as if not done right they get dried out and rubbery. These were perfectly plump and the sauce was not overwhelming.

    Food was flavorful. Loved sitting at chef’s table. Appetizers stole the show on the chef’s tasting menu. Highly recommend. Multiple James Beard awards for a reason.
