    If you’re looking for a truly exceptional dining experience, this spot is a must-visit. The food was absolutely delicious, with elevated flavors and top-tier quality that left a lasting impression. We started with the bone marrow, easily the best I’ve ever had—rich, buttery, and perfectly roasted. The king and snow crab appetizer was fresh and packed with flavor, a perfect introduction to what the menu had to offer. For the mains, we indulged in the smoked roasted duck and the flambé lobster. Both dishes were cooked to perfection—the duck was tender and flavorful, and the lobster was as decadent as it sounds. For dessert, we shared the banana napoleon, which was so light, flavorful, and a perfect ending to the meal. With such a diverse menu, I can’t wait to come back—there are so many more dishes I’m eager to try. If you’re considering dining here, don’t hesitate—it’s worth every bite!
