Couldn't wait to try out this new place and am thrilled that we got to try the 7 service fixed menu during le Mousso's soft opening. We were a party of 4 who reserved for 9h30 on a Thursday night. I called last minute to say we would could only make it for 10pm, thinking they would turn us down but instead they said no problem and that they would accommodate us without a problem. We really appreciated this.
The place was packed upon arrival. Walking into the restaurant felt like walking into a friend's kitchen. The staff greeted us warmly and our waiter was attentive and knowledgeable. I didn't really have any expectations although I heard good things about the chef's past work and was really hoping for a good experience.
The tasting menu was a fixed 7 service meal. Every single plate was a work of art and meticulously put together. I really appreciated how much thought was put into the pairing of ingredients, tastes and textures. Everything was good, and 4 of the plates really impressed me. The mussels and tartar were to die for, and so was the dessert. It was a little pricey with taxes and tip but worth it for the experience. I really enjoyed the fact that you can finally enjoy fine dining in a completely unpretentious setting (the playlist was a good mix of mostly hip hop tracks). Would recommend it and am looking forward to going back.
