We booked our reservation at Verses because of the excellent reviews. I can say without hesitation that the food, the ambiance and the wait staff all lived up to those appraisals. The only reason I did not give Verses a 5th star is because we thought the portions were just too small. If they were offering a "tasting menu", the portion size would have made more sense to us, especially considering the prices. Still, let me make it eminently clear that everything we ate was delicious.
