| - I'll tell you a little later how Restaurant managed to serve me the tastiest food but yet was able to disappoint me at the end, but first, let me tell you about how I met the world's nicest server on this evening.
I took my fiancé to this great restaurant for his birthday. Reservations were made ahead. We were seated and the fun has begun. Our server was such a refreshment. He was polite, knowledgeable, personable, funny, and more....
We decided to go with a tasting menu and he was sure to explain to us of what we should expect. Overall, the service was great and it is almost comparable to first-class service of French Laundry :-)
The ambiance was very zen like. This restorante is great for special occasions. They only have 8 tables. Very intimate and personable historic, two bedroom house in downtown Phoenix. The place is really easy to find as it seats right across from famos Pizzeria Bianco.
They are open 7 days a week but I highly recommend that reservations are made prior your visitation as they are really small and popular place. They start serving dinner at 5PM and are open for lunch from 11am to 2pm.
Both of us really enjoyed the food very much as it took us to Japan and opened up our palette. My favorite were sashimi's for which, I am definitely going back :-)
The only catch to this evening was that I did find a little bit odd that they didn't do anything special for the birthday boy. He was served the same desert as i got without a single candle or any acknowledgment of his special day. When I originally called to make the reservations, I was advised that they do something little for b-day guests but I must say we got nothing.
For me, it is not about the free desert, I can pay for that - it just the principal. It would of been nice to get at least a candle for such a special occasion, especially at pace where one drops over $300 for dinner for two :-)
We are definitely going back and highly recommend this place to those with deep pockets ;-)
