    This place was so fantastic. Super small space and the chefs are also your servers for the most part. I'm a dummy and took too long to write this review so I'll do my best re remembering what we had. We started with some beautiful oysters and a dip situation which included these amazing beets that my hubs and I became obsessed with and of course they're sold out online haha. There was a beautiful ode to the garden which was a handheld salad if you will, so amazing. There was also stuffed mussel, and duck I believe. Everything was amazing. I think the only thing that fell a little flat for us was the lobster dish, where there was a pasta in a lobster bisque if I recall correctly, and we felt like it was two dishes fighting each other. We ate everything regardless of nits and loved everything. Definitely recommend. One note, I guess between the name and write up, I was expecting more Asian influence which I didn't get less the chopsticks and one tuna dish. So if that's your desire here, you'll be disappointed.

    This is a scam. Made a reservation, had to cancel due to emergency. Talked on the phone w/ the presumed owner of this establishment and he assured me everything was fine, etc. Never received a refund and the reservation was never actually cancelled.

    I prepaid for a 13 course chef’s table experience at $175 per person. However, we only received 7 courses and we weren’t seated at the chef’s table either. This is a disappointment and we will not go back nor recommend this restaurant.
