    While all modern American restos preach local & seasonal, S&D does this in a league of its own, and in a tiny kitchen! Tasting menu is top notch as are wine selection and service. Deservedly 1*.

    You MUST order the wine pairing. P.S. they serve the most amazing pastries. P.P.S. they've also got a super friendly staff and are one of the least pretentious 1-star Michelin restaurants!

    Delicious tasting menu with excellent service. They texted us beforehand to get our preferences and adjust the courses. The customized menu was a nice touch as well.

    As many others have said, the wine pairing is a must. As an option, they split the pairing between the two of us by pouring the glasses lighter. The service is truly exceptional without pretension.

    Loved every bite! Delicious unpretentious food, executed to perfection. Lots of fresh greens and vegetables that add the X factor to every dish. Very good wine pairing, too!

    Request one of the tables across from the small, open kitchen. It’s a lot of fun to watch the chefs in action. - Inspector

    Tasting menu only. Most ingredients come out of their own garden in Los Gatos. Since you are splurging already, you should definitely get the wine pairing. They have a ton of local wines.

    This is the best 'meal' (meaning, a well structured bunch of delicious dishes, not just a load of poorly matched fancy foods) I think I've ever had. Service is fantastic too.

    Fantastic service, beautiful food, excellent flavor, and a top-rate wine program. Definitely a splurge, but well worth it.

    Really great farm to table fare. If you tell them it's your birthday, they'll make you a cake!

    Yummy place. One of the best Michelin one star restaurant I've been. Very creative food. Definitely worth a try.

    Don't skip the house-made breads that match the tasting courses, from brioche to buckwheat toast to a pretzel roll. – Green Guide Editor

    Okay...this place is beyond amazing. There is a very quaint "lounge" if you are early where you can order a BTG.

    Reasonably priced wine list, and $20 corkage policy, but get it waived if you buy a bottle from their list.

    They've jacked up the prices for their tasting and wine pairings as they've gained notoriety but this place is quite special.
