As someone that eats out all the time (and all over the world), I think this was one of the best experiences that I have had in a long time. The food was perfection, delicious and of the highest quality. I went with a group and we all ordered the $125 tasting menu. Some of our group has special "needs" and they were lovely and accomodating. Our server was amazing and on top of everything. I am going back tomorrow!
