Lucretia: Skip the beet salad. Pork shank was nice. Experience not all it was hyped up to be...unfortunately.
Lisa Wang: Roasted cauliflower is PHENOMENAL and everything else I tried (octopus, beet salad, bread, pig face, scallops)
Valerie: The beet salad was fabulous! We also enjoyed the pork shank and the green beans. The plantain cake was kind of weird, I'd pass on that dessert next time.

Brandan Ortega: Beet salad was amazing, steak entree was lukewarm and left something to be desired. I'll be coming here for cheese and drinks only.
Teri: Order the escargot (slightly sweet). Also order duck confit (not too greasy). Great, intimate, and polished but not pretentious atmosphere. You can hear your companion(s) talk, which is lovely.
Katie M.: Bottomless mimosa brunch was fantastic especially coupled with the goat cheese and pesto omelette. Highly recommend!
