Stopped here for lunch and it was worth the wait. Although I had read it was all gluten free, that wasn't the case, but nonetheless the staff were able to take celiac-appropriate accommodations and I enjoyed a burger and some really good chocolate mousse without getting sick. Food: 5

My fiancé and I have been here a couple of times and have been blown away each time. The chef uses a lot of bold flavors across every plate, which can sometimes end up a mess, but they manage to balance and pair these bold flavors perfectly making every bite an absolute delight. Every single element on the plate tastes amazing on its own, even down to a simple cooked carrot. We came here for our anniversary yesterday and it was exactly what we want for a fancy date night. Small dining room and very intimate. Service has been good for us. And for those mad that they don't allow children? This place isn't for children, plain and simple, and I am glad it's that way! More restaurants should guarantee a quiet adult atmosphere. Nobody wants to hear your screaming kids over their five star meal. Some have also mentioned the menu being too limited, but anyone who understands how a restaurant works knows that it's necessary to keep the menu small in a place like this to keep the meals that they do serve of the highest quality. If you don't have a more developed palate for different flavors and aren't willing to put your trust in the chefs creations, this may not be the restaurant for you.

Our experience was good. I 'm at four stars for two reasons. First my Steak of the day was ordered medium and came out well done thin and a bit fatty. I didn 't send it back because of the time that would have taken. We are in SD, everywhere advertises quality beef. Even the local gelato/ice cream shop sells it from a freezer and the choices looked amazing. Second reason is the service is slow. Really slow. We were told that it was slow when we sat. We were the first ones sat. I kind of expected the place to get packed full because we changed our reservation to an earlier time and felt like we almost wouldn 't get in. Also, that would 've then made more sense that the service goes slow. But we were only 1 of 3 tables sat. Us and another couple at 5pm. Then a four top at 5:45. Then another four top after 6pm. Still we were in the restaurant for 1:45. Not sure what the chef is doing in the kitchen. Our waiter was great. Very communicative. Attentive to our table. We watched multiple couples come to the entrance and when not even greeted within five minuets they left. I was concerned when we got the steak at 1:30 into the meal that it was going to take another 20 minutes for the check so I placed my card on the table and the check came quickly. Despite the week-done status of the meat it was quite delicious. The red wine and berry gastrique made for a great sauce. We also ordered the Georgia O 'Keefe summer salad and Red Lentil Dahl. Both had excellent flavors. In fact the salad was one of the best flavors of salad we have enjoyed. The Dahl was delicious too. It was the food flavors that bring the review to up a notch. If you dine here, order a bottle of wine. You 'll have time to drink it since it 'll take a while.
