    I was blown away by the vibe of this place! Between the music, ambiance, table setting, and Christmas crackers, this place was amazing. We chose the festive menu. I don’t realize you get all of the food on the menu! I thought you chose one app, entree, and dessert. Plate after plate of delicious food came out and it could have fed six people. The only improvement i would recommend is that you need bus boys to clear the plates and empty glasses. The server kept looking for places to set down the food, however, the table was cluttered with dishes. I literally had to tell them to clear the glasses and dishes.

    We had the most incredible experience at BEHIND. Great concept and ethos, and the food and service were excellent. We loved seeing the chefs at work and being able to interact with them as they served and explained the dishes. The intimate size of the restaurant also added a personal touch. Highly recommend!

    One of the best meals I’ve ever had which requires a revisit to be able to try other things on the menu. Superb service and loved the ambiance of the place. Best bread pudding dessert!
