narniMarch 1, 2010Get the edemame mac n' cheese -- it's a modest portion, but so very indulgent. Also, the grilled octopus first course was so good -- the portion was enough to be a main entree!
Sarah BeckleyDecember 29, 2011Ask for the gluten-free bread option even if you are not. It's a spiced flax seed cracker. Delicious!
Omar PerezApril 21, 2013Try the Roasted quail, salad of pea and wild garlic, sauteed morels and jus of quail
Chef Wolen is the god of chicken; sexiest and best chicken dish in the Midwest
Shodmon IbragimovMarch 20, 2011Great romantic restaurant in the area! Best Chef in town! Delicious food and friendly service! Make reservations today!
Leon SkitJanuary 12, 2020The dumplings were the best part of the dinner and were, unfortunately, extremely over-salted.
Frank NgNovember 23, 2013Not a great restaurant that said in all the feedback! The food is average! The drinks selection is very good but not excellent! The service is mediocre except the bartender! Coco panna rest os better

Stephen ImigSeptember 11, 2011Wow...very disappointing experience :( Went in for the 6 course tasting and decided to do the wine pairing. How can a restaurant receive a 1 star Michelin rating...yet have no Sommelier?
