What an outstanding experience. We’ve eaten at Michelin star restaurants and had tasting menus before, but this experience was truly remarkable. Everything from the service to the food was impeccable and will be remembered. Nancy was such a kind and informative server, and the entire team supporting was also knowledgable about everything being served. The open kitchen concept was cool to see the chef making each dish. The two tasting menu options are truly works of art. Thank you to the whole team for a memorable experience :)
