Overall for a Michelin recommended restaurant it was pretty disappointing. The short ribs were tough and not fall off the bone which is a must for that type of cut. The Gnocchi was rich tender but overall was an okay dish. Kale salad was okay as well, overdressed a bit. The best dish was the Brussels sprouts and that compared to other places is mediocre. Overall it was a disappointing experience. They did remove the short ribs from the bill and was appreciated but definitely won’t be back.

Booked to celebrate our daughter's birthday. Our server was excellent and sooo sweet. Our group chose the set menu however the restaurant was out of the duck appetizer and instead substitute 2 wonderful dishes kale salad and brussel sprout, cauliflower dish. They allowed us to bring in an external cake without any surcharge for serving and also placed a candle and offered my daughter a birthday shot for the celebration. Really appreciated the experience, the food and service were wonderful and we would't hesitate to return.

We tried the omakase 7 course which was pretty good. Experience was ruined by super slow service and extremely loud vibe.

First of all this is a Michelin recommended restaurant, so one would expect the quality of service and food to be above average, and it certainly was not. And none of us are picky people by any regard. To start off we had a reservation for 7:45, and waited 25 minutes before we were seated, even though there was a different open 4 top visible the whole time. Not a huge deal. A cpl of us witnessed one of the servers, while setting the table, move the water glasses with her fingers on the inside of the glasses. I had a question about some wine, and the first server was new and didn't know about wine. Fair enough. A second server came over, who also didn't know anything about wine, who in turn sent the bartender over to answer my questions. Then when it was time to order our appies, we asked for the duck croquette, and were told that they ran out, then we ordered tartar, and were informed that they were no longer carrying it, and replacing it with the duck confit, but that they were out of it as well. Then as we ordered our mains, we were then informed that they were out of another dish, the roasted duck. A duck shortage it seems. Being out of certain food items happens, and I understand this, but to be out of 3 items at 8:30 PM on a Saturday night, and to not be informed before we order, at a Michelin reco restaurant seems a bit wild. Then at 9PM we were informed that it was last call for food, and we needed to order desert, before we had even received our mains. On top of all this, the music being played was not very good, or conducive to an upscale chill dining experience. Soulless radio pop music. The servers were all pleasant, and lovely people. They just seemed quite inexperienced. The food was tasty, and well presented, but none of it was amazing. We ate crudo, tempura, chicken wings, and brussell sprouts to start, and the sea bream, and short ribs for mains. I've eaten here in the past and throughly enjoyed it, so hopefully, this is just a hiccup.

My son and I did the Chef's Table and found there was not much flexibility. We could only choose 1-main and 1-desert. For $70/person we didn't see the value.
