This time I had the pumpkin soup for a starter and the veal fillet for my main. The soup was good, very tasty. The veal was also very good, well cooked - still a bit red. The veal came with some tempura veggies that were excellently cooked, a nice crispy batter and excellent taste. I had a beer with dinner, but they have a nice selection of wine as well. They had a small selection of deserts. I tried a few And they were all very nice. It's a very nice restaurant and it was all very tasty, but for the price I expect a bit more.

We did wine pairing and enjoyed choices of wine. Only downside is the very controlling interaction of the lady who explains each dish and other necessary info. I felt somewhat unpleasant as she was a bit rough.. like soup Nazi from TV show. It might be better to provide a note of each menu item so she doesn't have to interrupt people conversations or act/talk like a boss.

Service is awesome. Food is fantastic…read more They serve a "menu surprise" with your choice of a 3, 4 or 5 course meal. The chef is great with accommodating those who have food sensitivities. The menu offers fish, meat, and vegetarian options. You can also have wine pairing with your meal. Great atmosphere and personable staff. A good venue to host a gathering or a business lunch/dinner. If you let the establishment staff know ahead of time your preferences insofar as menu or setup for your group they are good at accommodating.
