"Chef Anthony Secviar and Master Sommelier Dennis Kelly trained under Chef Thomas Keller at The French Laundry, but this dining room is far from weighty. Instead, leather booths, beautifully set tables and even a flip flop-donning diner keep things informal.Expect edgy cooking with panache. The dining room's seven-course tasting menu proffers the likes of kataifi-wrapped langoustine; Pacific sablefish with yuzu tapioca and dashi; as well as lamb loin with a swipe of vadouvan-infused sauce, falafel and sweet pepper confiture. A keen attention to detail and well-balanced flavors continue through to dessert—dulce de leche mousse shines.An à la carte menu (think brick chicken with razor clams and brown-butter caper jus) is on offer in the lounge, bar and patio." - Michelin Inspector
