    Everything we ordered was delish. We started with the bread and butter which is always great. We then had the bistro and celery salad, always a great choice, very tasty. The pork croquettes are delish. The swordfish, chicken,lamb and short ribs are all super delicious, the potato cakes with egg roe are awesome, the sautéed mushrooms are super tasty. Finally the cheesecake and pistacho desserts are a great finally.

    This place was just right. My wife and I often split a salad and a meal. They did not even blink an eye. The salad and meal were both split in the kitchen and no one would know by looking at the served dishes that the meal was meant for one. We’ll be back.

    Met every expectation based on the hype I had seen from it being rated in the top 10 in San Diego. The food was uniquely prepared and true to what the reviewers has said, each entree in the tasting menu was exceptional. Our family of four was attended to by what seemed like every member of the staff, they were ever present and attentive to our needs. From when they bring the meals out all at once to the explanation of the dishes, to then clearing the table all at once, service was top notch. Many thanks to the staff and chefs for such a memorable experience. They also took note of my daughters' allergies and ensured her dishes were prepared accordingly.
