| - Came to this quiet neighbourhood for a dinner with some friends on a weeknight, and it was was an okay experience. It's certainly a far drive out from the highways, so I was a bit hesitant to go, but how can I say no to a friend meet-up? :) Went with an chef's choice menu (omakase, tapas-style) and the dishes were good but service was pretty slow and it was certainly pricy at just over $50 per person. I'm not sure if everyone walked away full.
The downs: it's a bit awkward to share food plates between three or more people too, especially since what arrives at your table isn't really portioned out, so you each pick your own amounts from the plate. Also, we waited a half-hour for our first dish to arrive, which was a salad. The furious look on my friend's face when he saw it was to die for.
The ups: dishes were unique and some of them were very tasty. It seemed no one was as big a fan of the chanterelles as I was, and I was practically hording the black cod away from everyone (your my friends, but you don't beat black cod, sorry guys). Our server was really nice and friendly without being clingy. Also, their beer selection is a bit on the unique side and reasonably priced.
Place does accept credit cards, so bring whichever form of plastic you want.
