| - I went to Kai last week and it was awesome (see previous review). After a week in Alaska and missing my family I decided to take my daughter to a special dinner. She doesn't meet the age requirement but she behaves better than most adults so I knew she would behave and that she would absolutely love it. She has a very sophisticated palette, especially for a kid. After the amuse bouche, which was pretty great, we received gluten free bread service. I'm always impressed when places have a lot of gluten free options or variations since I have to be gluten free, it's not a preference. We started with a squash soup which had cotton candy in it made from prickly pear, the cotton candy melts as they pour in the piping hot soup and adds a hint of sweetness. We both loved the soup. As a matter of fact my daughter was offered a smaller portion, she opted for the regular size, and ate the whole thing. We were given a sorbet to cleanse our palettes and I must say, it in itself was a treat. Next we moved on to our entrees. She ordered elk which was served over risotto, I had the bison. Both were cooked to perfection and had amazing taste! We finished the night sharing a dark chocolate soufflé. It was out of this world! We were thrilled with our meal, the service was on point and the atmosphere was great. They do a lot of little extra things to make the experience amazing. Just when we thought it couldn't get any better we picked up our car from valet. Waiting on the dash was a thank you card and a little thank you gift of muffins and honey in a cute little wooden box. We also each had a Voss water waiting for us for the drive home. I highly recommend this place. Be prepared for a lengthy meal, they do things right, things are not rushed.
Ad far as price, starters are $20-30 and entrees are in the $50 range. Wine prices vary, as expected. We highly recommend Kai, it is a truly amazing experience.
