Reviews
We were thrilled for this experience and walked away satisfied. The food & wine was everything you'd expect from a 3-star restaurant. What was missing was the story behind each dish - or the explanation of what we were being served. I've come to expect an in-depth description of each dish and was let down by the limited information provided throughout our tasting menu. The atmosphere was comfortable, clean, and spacious enough - we were seated in a small space with three two-person tables. The balcony in this room opened up to the ground floor where a large group was dining and being extremely loud. I hoped management would have caught this and amended it for the sake of other guests but it did not happen. Lastly, a wine glass was broken by a staff member on my table spilling liquid across my dish and my lap. It was a rough-and-tumble dining experience for a 3-star restaurant.
This is my first three-Michelin-star experience. The service and ambiance absolutely feel three-star — polished, attentive, and effortless. But honestly, the food didn’t live up to the hype for me. Some dishes were too acidic, others too salty, and across the whole tasting menu, only one or two courses really stood out. Considering the price, it just didn’t feel worth it.
Truly bucket list experience. From the moment we stepped to the front door, service was top notch. Alejandro, Andrea, and Alberto did not disappoint. Both vegetarian and expression tasting were exceptional. With the wine pairings. Dessert was very unique in presentation and flavors.
