| - I really enjoyed this restaurant. I love it for the décor, the chef, the servers... It was my first time there and it was my friend Holly's birthday and we got to sit by the window next to their various containers of salt. I loved the chalkboards, the plants, the brick, the displays. I loved how unpretentious it looked.
It wasn't too loud of ambience, but didn't make you feel like talking would echo throughout and be embarassing. The food was suprising, and unexpectedly amazing and I will tell you why.
My friend Holly is a vegetarian, and the dish she chose was about Onions. All about onions, and in fact had not much more than onions. So when her plate arrived and it was onions done in about 12 different ways, we were kinda shocked. It was filling, and it was so different in experience. We also started off with a cheese tarte and almost fought for the crumbs. I had the chicken sous-vide and it was juicy, tender, and tasty.
We could have stopped there, but decided to revel in food, so we ordered dessert: a delicious dessert of the most memorable pistachio gelato, and mille feuille, we had ever had the chance to try. We also got a macaron, but we did only because we've never tried it before, and neither of us understand the craze for them.
Afterwards the chef came and introduced himself and ask about our meal. Our server and the chef were very courteous and pleasant.
I'd come back here in a heartbeat.
