The most flavorful, innovative food experience I can remember having aside from Bacchanalia. Every dish was a delightful culinary experience. The service was impeccable as our server had to explain many dishes and ingredients to us. He was very attentive, patient and made it fun!

Great food, great service. A little loud outside with the fans going and bug oarties so we moved and it was fine. A favorite brunch spot.
