THE LEAD VERDICT
“every course showed up like a piece of art - teh duck breast was fanned in perfect slices over this purple puree with microgreens so precisely placed they looked literally painted on. the lighting is photographer heaven meh”
“the portions are tiny tho so even with perfect plating some dishes looked sparse on the plate instead of like elegantly minimal”
ALSO FILED
“the dessert course was wild - warm chocolate mousse against cold yuzu sorbet with crunchy honeycomb just created this crazy sensory thing not gonna lie”
“so like one of teh fish courses arrived kinda lukewarm when it shoulda been hot which threw off the whole temperature contrast thing they were going for”

CONTRIBUTING CRITICS
“okay fine dining absolutely blew my mind on this one - literally every single course was just art on a plate”
“def but teh portions left me kinda hungry after spending like $200 per person which is rough”
“teh tasting menu was brilliant wiht local ingredients - i could actually taaaste the difference in their heirloom tomatoes and grass-fed beef look each dish felt like a lesson in seasonal California produce”
“seriously at $200 per person the portions left me genuinely hungry by the end which seems kinda counterproductive for a special occasion meal”
“def every plate comes out looking like art honestly - teh duck course with the puree and microgreens arranged like a Japanese garden literally made me gasp skip it”
“the lighting is so dark i couldn't even get good pictures without flash which sucks”
“tehir weekend brunch tasting menu was inspired - elevated versions of breakfast classics like duck egg with truffle and brioche french toast with seasonal fruit compote idk”
“ok but no bottomless mimosas at a place this upscale which i get but their cocktails are $18 each adn add up fast during a long brunch”
“the vegetable tasting menu is amazing - all these seasonal ingredients that feel nourishing but also indulgent at the same time flavors are balanced rlly well would go back”
“tbh the whole thing takes ALMOST four hours tho adn the pacing felt too slow left me way too full by dessert wow”
“bar seating lets you watch the kitchen and the servers were super attentive to solo diners - explaining each course and wine pairing without making me feel rushed or ignored”
“the reservation system is a nightmare for one person - they basically said call day-of and hope for cancellations”
