We were lucky to reserve patio seating for dinner and were delighted to be looking out at the garden of flowers. We ordered the Michter's Manhattan and the Blue Mule. The Blue Mule was refreshing on a humid summer day and the Manhattan was absolutely delicious and delivered the right strength. We started out with the cheese plate and the spicy heirloom cucumbers and fresh cilantro. The cheese plate came with homemade crackers and brined watermelon rind. Very innovative and delicious. The cucumbers were so fresh. I usually strongly dislike cilantro, but they were fragrant and did not offend. We then moved on to the Hamachi Crudo and the Gnocchi. The Hamachi crudo and accompanying herbs and radishes were so fresh and the Gnocchi had a nice earthy mushroom flavor. We also ordered the grilled summer squash as a side, and again, the vegetables were so fresh. We ended our evening with the trio of roasted banana, buttermilk strawberry, and blueberry yuzu ice cream and sherbert. Wow. I dislike bananas, but man did I like that ice cream. The strawberry was also very good and the blueberry was a favorite. Perfect meal with excellent service. read more
