| - I reserve this place for all the special occasions in my life. The ambiance is romantic and elegant: it's dimly lit with soft candlelights, a piano bar on the main floor and exposed wine fridges as you head upstairs to the dining room.
... but nothing beats that smell of salty, mouth watering meat!
Must-have sides:
Caesar salad: prepared table side, this salad is delicious without being too creamy;
Potato puree: a fluffly cloud from heaven in your mouth;
Creamed spinach: because vegetables are healthy and this is so tasty;
Duck fat fries: everything good in life, in every bite.
Sides worth passing up:
Rapini: while this side is truly delicious, I've been able to recreate it at home;
Potato gratin: in a war between the potatoes, the puree always wins!
Mushrooms: I get this 50% of the time because they're so much value added but too simple to justify spending $16 on.
Now let's talk meat! I've personally never spent the ~1k on the kobe beef, but i've heard spectacular things and cannot judge anyone who splurges. From my experience, the wait staff typically make the best recommendations on their meat, but I almost always end up ordering the bone-in porterhouse, medium-rare to rare. I am never disappointed!
This place is a perfect 10/10 from their fluffy starter bread, to their take-home muffins!
