Everything was fabulous. The sommelier Stephen was particularly delightful. Even though we only had a cocktail and a glass of wine each, he spent as much energy and time helping us decide as if we had been ordering an expensive bottle or two of wine. Food was all amazing— the amuse vouches were as fabulous as the courses. And the view is incredible. Our first Michelin experience- it will be hard to top!

We had a great lunch today. The lentil soup and special eggplant part sandwich was excellent. Our reservation was at 1 pm and it was full up and noisy when we first sat down. By the time we were finished the place had cleared out. Declan and Maddie, our servers, were on top of it - polite, timely and friendly. Great meal in a busy place - be sure to make reservations.
