| - This place was recommended by my roommate's brother, who recently visited this place with his fiancee. Naturally, we Yelped the place upon hearing it and checked out their menu on their website. The reviews were good, and the menu sounded delicious, hence we went ahead to call for reservations, considering it was a Saturday night (Open Table website wasn't accurate).
Upon arriving, we were greeted pleasantly by the hostess and were shown to our table instantly. The restaurant looks very trendy with the open kitchen on the side. Our server proved to be knowledgeable on the menu as we did not know some of the ingredients. She proceeded to recommend some of her favorites and we went ahead with those recommendations. (All dishes are small plates and are recommended to be shared)
Our meal for the night consist of:
Oysters - both jalapeno and miso
Hamachi
Crab Risotto
Grilled Octopus
Lobster spaghetti
We started with oysters, both jalapeno and miso. Both very different flavors and both equally tasty. We were so impressed that we ordered another round of oysters. Either that, or we were both really hungry. The Hamachi was also delicious, equal balance between the fresh fish and the sesame seasoning. Again, we finished the plate wanting more, but we held ourselves back.
The Lobster spaghetti was shared between us. Fresh lobster and light sauce on the spaghetti that doesn't over-power the dish itself. I had the grilled octopus for myself since my dining partner is less enthusiastic about the octopus than I am. The octopus was slightly over-cooked to my taste, slightly chewy, but unnoticeable. It was served on a tiny bed of Israeli couscous, personally I would prefer to have more couscous on the plate as it was very yummy
The crab risotto was all for my dining partner. I had a taste of it and it was very, very tasty. It can get a little bit heavy (since it's risotto). The crab is minced and mixed in the risotto, you can barely see it, but can definitely taste it.
Service were impeccable. They probably changed our plates more times than necessary. Paying attention to tiny details such as making sure the restaurant logo sits 12 o'clock, directly on the top. Cleared our plates promptly. We also ordered bread on the side (no charge), which they accommodated us graciously. We did not order any drinks, so can't review the quality of their wines.
