  • This was our first nicer dinner when we came to visit. Guess we just got a slow start! Everyone we encountered was very pleasant and accommodating. I was soon mesmerized by the way one of the chefs created the labneh "well" in the beet and crispy baby artichoke dishes. I eventually worked up the courage to ask his permission to take a Boomerang. He kindly obliged. To start, we ordered the beets, the steak tartare, manti dumplings and Spanish octopus. Though they pretty much put their dukkah on everything, it was delicious and I didn't mind it one bit. The steak tartare and the octopus were my two favorite starters. The steak tartare was one of the best I've had. For the mains, we ordered the crispy duck confit rice, short rib kebab, whole branzino along with a side of the seared cauliflower. To be honest, we weren't HUGE fans of the entrees. The appetizers were, to us, more impressive. Also, our server had mentioned she would course everything out for us so that not everything came at once. But when ALL our entrees came at once and I commented to her, all she said was "Yep, they're all here!" The crispy duck confit rice was pretty heavy on what tasted like star anise but I really enjoy the texture. The short rib, for whatever reason, came lukewarm. I took food photos but I'm generally a one-and-done type photographer (not high caliber) so it doesn't explain why the short rib was already lukewarm by the time we dug in. The fish was ok...somewhat on the fishy side...but the saffron sauce which I was apprehensive about ended up saving the dish. Dessert was another highlight of the evening. The pavlova was a foregone conclusion due to the theatrics of cracking it open but it ended up being supremely tasty as well. First meringue I've had that was tangy and not cloyingly sweet. We also got the baklava which we had totally discounted thinking it was heavy. On recommendation from our server, though, we decided to give it a go. It was amazingly light and delicious as well. Overall a good meal...and I would probably come back if we were ever in town again (hopefully)...but I would probably cobble together dinner from among the appetizer section or try other entrees.
