Terrific tasting menu experience. The kitchen nicely accommodated a couple allergies. The progression of dishes was wonderful, with an evolving theme that stitched together the evening. The presentation was amazing. The dishes were as beautiful as the food was tasty. The wine pairing was nicely structured with delicious, hard-to-find choices.

Everything was really good. The appetizers and entrée were delicious. The only thing was the services a little too. We needed to wave a server down to get a water refill. I don’t know if it was due to the holidays or what, but overall was very nice.
