Although the food was excellent it was very overpriced. We found the atmosphere very uncomfortable. It is a wide open room with open ceilings and large windows. Sound carries and we felt discouraged to talk during our dinner.
The amuse bouche was excellent, could have been a full appetizer. The appetizer of the smoked trout tower was a little confusing in flavour. The duck confit was perfect, but the broth that came with and the sausage (which seemed very out of place) was heavy and I thought more suited to an autumn menu rather than a summer menu. The dessert of cheese was excellent, except it was cheese with two small slices of nutty bread. Most plates provide some fruit etc. to give your palate a break between tastings of cheese so that you can appreciate each cheese type. I found that most of the meal lacked spark. The service was good - too good - there were too many servers. The wait station where the servers would congregate or get water from looked like a clown car - more servers packed in than you would expect, and then they would all come pouring out at once. My water never dipped below 1/4 full which is great since all I was drinking was water, but at the same time, it was not conducive to conversation as you had someone at the table every 7 minutes or so. The room size was also quite small, and I felt as though I was being watched by the wait staff every second, as well as being watched by the other dinner guests. I had very high expectations from this restaurant, and frankly, it did not meet or exceed my expectations.
very pretentios snoby, almost rude service,not worth the money,came away hungry.
