| - Was here for Winterlicious 2017 and only slightly regret dropping $50+ on dinner since the place was so classy and romantic and the food was so good, from taste to portion size. My favorite was their vegan chocolate truffle dessert!! I loved it so much that I would totally go back just for the chocolates. If you're a fan of dark chocolate that doesn't pride itself on being sweet, but rather on the incredibly silky texture and the unique rich, bitter-salty flavor, this dessert will fulfill all your dreams :)
The appetizer was most underwhelming - I ordered the vegan minestrone soup and felt that it tasted and looked like it came from a can. Nothing wrong with that, but wish I ordered the calamari appetizer instead, which was much bigger than I expected (batter to squid ratio was sad though) and came with squid ink. The salmon entree was delicious - the salmon itself was normal, but the couscous was really yummy and the berry sauce was a perfect sour and sweet balance.
The service here is 5/5- our server that night was the best! He was attentive, but not overly in our faces. Most importantly, he was very candid about his opinion of the menu options. For example, he recommended against the vegan entree, which is apparently lacking in flavor. He also warned me about the non-sweetness of the vegan chocolate.
Will be back again after I patch the hole in my wallet!
