We were late for our reservation because our flight was delayed and they were so incredibly kind and held our table! Everything was SPECTACULAR from service to food! So good we ate there a second night! We did the Chefs Menu which was SUBLIME! We then came back and ate from the menu both were out of this world! The best gin and tonics and great wine list! Seriously one of the best dinner ever!!! A must visit!!!

Words are difficult to describe the taste adventures we find at PROXI. Each offering is a combination of amazing flavors and textures that excite and please the palate. Ordered a "carrot puree" and couldn't believe how it transformed something as basic as a carrot into something so delicious. Chef Zimmerman is a wonder and I wish we lived closer so I could dine there more often.

Proxi is a Bib Gourmand winner. Beautiful space, however music with crowd noise was too loud. Very good, friendly service. Food was different and delicious. Pork collar was great. We had the tasting menu, $75 per person, but there is a La cart option as well. I think there should not be up charges for select items on the tasting menu. Would return and recommend.

Really solid place. Tasting menu was great, and actually a really incredible value for the amount of food you get and the diversity of dishes they have on the menu. Also the wine pairing is a nice touch, also quite affordable. I have a lot of respect for chef Zimmerman - the night my girlfriend I went he was actually in the kitchen working in the kitchen and handling expo at the pass. More or less only critique I have is a few of the dishes were a bit too spicy. Maybe they were intended that way and I’m just sensitive to spice - hard to tell. Otherwise 5/5 stars.

Dinner was an outstanding experience. Three of us shared small plates after enjoying wonderful cocktails. We loved all of the tastes we had…octopus, sea scallops, banh khot, mushrooms. Great place for the adventurous foodie.

Impressed with this restaurant. somewhat eclectic fusion food but very good. We booked at 6.45pm. Perfect for less noise levels. Had the apple and radicchio salad, dumplings, coal flash cooked scallops to start. Smaller plates. Scallops were amazing - succulent and very tender. The beef cheek rendang curry also amazing - they haven’t held back the chilli which was fantastic; but flavours not lost at all. Sea bass and sticky rice also amazing Couldn’t fault the meal at all and will be back. :)

The service was really poor. Our server disappeared randomly for awkward lengths of time. The people running the food for the tasting menu didn’t take the time to explain what each dish was. And the main courses were both awful. The “braised beef” was seared on the outside but nearly raw on the inside and the knife provided couldn’t cut through the meat. The second main dish was a curry seafood dish that had a lot of potential but was way too spicy to eat. The whole experience was a bit of a let down.

Great food and ambiance. A little pricey for the size of servings in the a la carte menu. And the “optional” surcharge added to the bill, especially given the already high prices, is tacky!

The hostesses and servers were outstanding and kind. The food was delicious but one dessert I didn’t particularly like but not everyone enjoys the same flavors. The food presentation and timing was excellent. Not quite as good as Sepia but still worth it and outstanding.
