    Our dining experience is always nothing short of fab! {4th visit!} The atmosphere strikes a perfect balance between elegant & welcoming w soft lighting & tasteful decor. The service was impeccable! Our waiter {Shantanu} was very attentive without being intrusive. He was knowledgeable about the menu & provided recommendations tailored to our preferences. {I am a pescatarian.} Though the food itself was the true star of the evening… Each dish was a work of art, beautifully plated & bursting w flavor! Dessert {Monte Fiji} was simply divine. I cannot recommend Noe highly enough. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or simply in the mood to dine out, this restaurant is a must!
