This is the first time my mom has been here and I'm so glad she liked it because it's one of my husband and I's favorite spots! We had the pork belly with pickled veggies (YUM!), Japanese sweet potatoes (so good!) and the Paccheri ragout (Delicious). I've never had anything here that was a disappointment, so we're on the right track!!

One of my favorite PHX restaurants - everything was great from the service to the vibe to the food. Only issue was there was too much dressing on all of our salads. Next time I will get dressing on the side for sure!
