Very nice service most dishes were above par. Seating can be tight difficult for servers to get around. Ambiance was fine, if fully booked might be noisier. We will return.

We love the concept of shared plates and being able to try a variety of cuisines from various cultures, all of which were outstanding. It’s ideal to go with another couple so you can order several enticing plates. It’s superb service. We found that by going early, around 6 PM, the small restaurant is less crowded and not as noisy as it is when all the tables are full and everyone is enjoying the delicious food and wine. All in all, we loved it and look forward to returning soon!

I can't remember a better meal. Completely blown away. I think we said wow about 10 times while we were eating. The kingfish crudo and the seabass were my favorites. The crumb butter cake with pear sorbet sounded fine when we were ordering. But the flavors blew us away. Service was amazing. I can't wait to go back. I think I would eat anything on the menu after our experience.
