    Delicious meal and simply put, art on a plate. Every dish was crafted to drive your senses and elevate the ingredients. If any feedback at all will be that service did feel a bit rushed at times. We would get the bread and right that moment you will get amuse boche. Can’t really enjoy when everything served at once and same happened with dessert and petite four. But otherwise including the wine pairings were world class and leaving you room to want more. Thank you!

    You have taken the french toast off your weekend menu … a favourite for so many. Also I used to have an omelette that was delicious … what is on the menu now is not what I would call an omelette. Scrambled egg with a clump of cheese on top and your version of shaved truffles (looked like it came out of a shaker bottle) … an omelette, everything is inside! Missing these two favourites …

    Our server was Victoria and she was absolutely fantastic- we will ask for her when we go back, which we definitely will, she made us feel so at home and table service was fast and friendly. The front desk was a bit messy - originally they had us just sit and wait for our table, but then when they sent others right in and we went back and asked again, they took us straight to a table. Baja fish tacos were fantastic, but so was everything. Loved the margaritas and the sangria as well.

    Excellent atmosphere. Definietly recommend. Its our second time there and again we came with our infant daughter and they were unprepared. They accommodated but only after they realized that their approach would hamper our childs safety and then they complied. Exact same thing happened the time before. Please train your staff to handle seating families with infants that will remain in their stroller basket. THe unprepared approach makes it a bit annoying.
