    I'm not sure how this place was awarded a Michelin star but I found the food to be just ok. We ordered the pork belly & brussel sprouts recommended by the staff. The pork belly was over cooked and dry & the brussel sprouts were burnt. The noise level was a 10/10 and made me want to pay the bill and get out of there as fast as possible. The prosciutto & burrata was decent. This is a one and done place.

    Great food. Good service. Worth the price. Valet parking is a good thing in the area.

    Ordered a decent variety of items 4 apps 5 entrees and 4 desserts. All pastas were prepared well and had good texture seasoning on some could use some adjusting. The rabbit had to be substituted for duck which isn’t an issue but it wasn’t discussed when ordered but after it was sent to the kitchen so pre shift should address that and those notes should be on the servers. In general the presentation was pedestrian especially when considering the nod from Michelin I expected more refinement. Desserts were ok, I found the banana bread pudding confusing because it was very lemony and just topped with two slices of banana. Overall a lackluster experience.

    On Saturday evening me, my wife, and in laws came to dine at your restaurant with a 7:45pm reservation. We were not seated until 8:45pm and the staff basically said people weren’t leaving. Well, we are a middle class family on a very special date night and having a babysitter stay late because our reservation isn’t ready is expensive and very poor customer service. We aren’t like the rich kids coming to eat on their parent’s dime. We rarely are able to leave our area to eat at a fancy and expensive dinner and expected to at least be seated at the time we made our reservations or have some sense of sympathy for the night starting off so poorly. There was no attempt at making our wait as comfortable as possible. Not an offer for a cocktail or any food, nothing except a bunch of shrugs. Are we supposed to sit around for an hour and just be hungry and thirsty? Our intent wasn’t to have to spend an additional $150 on drinks while we waited I feel like an hour + delay on a reservation is not a solid business practice and there was very little attempt to try and accommodate us in any way. Please be mindful that babysitters are expensive, additional cocktails are expensive. We wanted a good night and while the wait staff when we were finally seated were terrific the night got off to a very very rough start that loomed over the whole dinner.

    Had reservations for 7:30 for my daughter's 16th birthday (4 of us), we sat down by 7:55. Salads came by pretty quickly (very tasty). Main course came for my kids but not for myself and my wife. My kids ordered pasta, my wife and I ordered the steak and the fish. 20 minutes after my kids finished their food, my wife and I received our main dish. My steak was "warm" and over cooked, the fish wasn't very tasty. I returned the steak. We loved the salads, the service was good but the kitchen failed to deliver. They did give us two free deserts for the hassle, I would have preferred to eat the steak.
