Doug de WetJuly 19, 2016We ordered 2 dishes each, shared bread, and a dessert. Everything was spectacular: summer squash, market greens, potato dumplings, duck, and peach melba. Left satisfied and happy. Eat here!
- Doug de WetJanuary 21, 2017If you enjoy duck, they know how to do it up right. The breast was perfectly cooked, juicy with crisp skin, and the confit was well seasoned with crunchy, browned bits.
Jon B.March 26, 2017What an amazing value! 4 course tasting menu for only $65! Wine pairings for an additional $45. Food was outstanding, and ambiance delightful.
Go for the four-course meal, and the wine pairings if you're feeling all-in. Excellent food at an unassuming price.
Carrie EdwardsApril 5, 2015Everything we had was really delicious! Highlights were the Green Garlic Soup and the Potato-Black Pepper Dumplings. Delta Asparagus and the sourdough bread were also quite good.
David MazzaMay 28, 2015The reflection in that spoon is their infinite lighting. Both the setting and the offering are meticulously designed.
christa eJuly 24, 20161st and 2nd courses were outstanding and outshined meat mains. I suspect veggie or fish main options were better but will have to return to confirm! Wine pairings were delightful.
Jonathan EatherlyApril 1, 2015Everything I had was very good but the delta asparagus and green garlic soup were great dishes. Each taste was unique, vibrant, and showed off its thoughtful composition.
Eric ShangleSeptember 27, 2017Our favorite new restaurant. Their 4-course meal is a great deal for amazing food. Get the soft-cooked egg dish and the lamb!
Laurel FMay 22, 2016Absolutely recommend the Duck Hash for Brunch! Very fresh and not too heavy, which is hard to do with a duck hash
Debora OlssonFebruary 20, 2017The salmon roe and smoke cod snacks are fantastic! Duck confit hash is also delicious!
Margot MazurFebruary 7, 2017Very small plates packed with flavor. Awesome wine list. Great for a culinary adventure that doesn't feel stuffy.
Kait GaissMay 13, 2016Mmmmmm more brunch. The chef / owner used to head up brunch at Outerlands. Apparently there's a buttermilk biscuit with honey butter which is essentially all I need to know to be sold on it.
Jonathan BalleranoMay 14, 2016Do the tasting menu with pairings, get the sourdough, and good luck choosing between the desserts
Ting SFebruary 7, 2016Cozy but chic. I do expect more from here since it is a Michelin starred restaurant.
Derek DukesMay 15, 2015My chef friends tell me you are doing it wrong if you don't try all the desserts.
Anton LopyrevOctober 24, 2015The service is kinda slow, but the food is quite decent. Try the pork shoulder and the egg!
Neel HajareAugust 22, 20174-course menu didn't live up to the hype and the service really left something to be desired
Amelia ManiJanuary 26, 2016Totally overpriced. The food was great but portions were tiny. Our pork shoulder was $26 and looked like an appetizer.
