I hosted a Birthday dinner for my wife with two other couples. We had a delightful evening. There wasn't a single dish that wasn't delicious. We had the babaganouj, the whipped ricotta (a stand out), beet salad, fried calamari, fried octopus, pad thai, terres major and several wines by the glass. For dessert we had the olive oil almond cake and the trio of sorbet. Everything is something I'd order again. Highly recommended.
