Amazing. Really unique twists in familiar ingredients. Our favorites we the squash, hand-rolled noodles, crab Rangoon and the wagyu beef rolls. Amazing. We were too full for dessert after sharing 6 dishes. The service is impeccable. Everyone was very knowledgeable. Water glass constantly filled. The decor is beautiful. Each chef has a shelf to display their favorite things. And every employee is listed on the back of the menu which shows how much care goes into the staffing.

One Michelin Star (and all that implies) with two prix fixe selections and alacarte menu. (1) Self select 4 items from 4 groups, $90) or (most) Chefs Selection 7 items plus desert ($150). We did Chefs Selection, excellent flavors and great value. The last dish was an aged duck breast dish with all typical Indian sides (Naan, rice, curry dipping sauces). The cocktail menu and wine list were amazing. Easily worth
