This is a definite four star experience, the four of us had the "Tasting menu with wine" and it was spectacular. Each "taste" was lovely to look at and tasty as can be. Since the menu changes frequently, I'll only mention a few "tastes". The striped bass was presented crispy, perfectly cooked, the short rib was fork tender with a lovely huckleberry au jus, cheesecake desert with berry ice was lick-the-plate. The wines chosen for each course added to the experience. Staff was attenuative without being intrusive. Highly recommend this, we're already planning to return to try the 3 course prix fix menu.
