    The food and service were outstanding! You can get lost in all of the wonderful offerings in their store. Such a great idea to eat in such a lovely ambiance. Our food was beautifully plated and delicious. We opted to eat half our servings in order to try some of their desserts! We were not disappointed! And we got our leftovers packed away to eat later. This was a beautiful experience from start to finish... We will be back soon!

    We went on Valentine’s Day, so it was very busy, but service was still pretty decent! A great place to o shareable small plates- especially the risotto tater tots! Expensive, but not the priciest thing in WeHa. Overall delicious food and a delightful evening.
