Three of us experienced one of the best and most unique dinners we have had in a long time. We were celebrating a birthday and she remarked that it was the best birthday she had ever had. We had appetizers and entrees and each thing was better than the the one before. (Huge thumbs up to Leek salad and Swiss chard Tempura--trust me) The service was impeccable and timely. We will go back often👍🏼👍🏼🥰
