    Great food and atmosphere. The wine prices could use an adjustment, quite high prices by the glass.

    A sublime meal with appropriate wine pairings (thank you again, Jill). I can not fault any aspect of the restaurant; it’s one of my favourites. My one minor complaint was that the scent worn by one of the servers was a little too generously applied and was wafting towards us as she moved around.

    We had the Endive salad, the japanese baked sweet potatos and they were just outstanding. So much flavour. My 2 faves. We also had the seared argentinian prawns and the salted caramel pot de creme. Both were also very good. There were 2 of us and we sat at the Chef's table and it was so interesting watching them put together the delicious food. It was noisy downstairs with the lunch crowd and somewhat upstairs but at the Chef's table it was fine. I would definitely visit Nightingale again!
