It’s always a fabulous experience. We started out at the Bar having a cocktail - Arie is a doll. He really gets to know you. Dinner was outstanding. Mohammed was more than professional and accommodating. We don’t dine there often enough. Highly recommend.

This is the first time my husband and I did an 8 course tasting. With incredibly knowledgable staff, mind blowing and complex food, this was a night to remember. When a taste can bring you back to your childhood (much like what happened in Ratatouille), it’s nothing I had ever experienced anywhere else. Even as a non vegetarian, I did not miss the absence of meat. A must “go-to”.
