    Incredibly creative and delicious food. Every dish was perfect but the bites (courses 3-5) stood out.

    Stunning dinner filled with so many creative and delicious bites. I could eat it all over again (and again and again). Highlights of the immediate moment (without just highlighting the whole darn thing)-- the Taiwanese style sausage with the softest bun, the crispy salt and pepper pumpkin, the tofu and uni, the shiso ice cream!!! Cannot wait to come back.

    Delightful. Full of care. Our time there was a pleasure; full of diverse flavors, nuance and variety of textures, familiarity and surprises. The space is intimate, softly bustling, and it feels peaceful and fun to enjoy a meal with loved ones here. Delicious beverages too! ☺️
