Enjoyed our dinner date night here. Easy self parking in the lot reserved only for 4Shore. Complementary champagne glass welcome. Great service. The food was creative and tasty. Not everything was 10/10 with the food, but everything was good and there were a couple of genuine slam dunks.
Starters:
- Crudo - fresh fish, beautifully plated, but needed acid to hit the next level. The menu listed "pomegranate, shiso" with the crudo. Turns out these ingredients were used for their vibrant colors in the liquid base. Beautiful plating, but didn't get much pomegrantate or shiso flavor out of it. Really close to a superstar dish.
- Scallops - the two scallops were perfectly cooked, just wish there was 1-2 more of them. Cauliflower was good on its own but didn't really make sense with the Scallops. Still creative and yummy. Cauliflower helped bulk the plate out a little.
Entrees:
- Corn agnolotti - really delicious. Sweet and savory. Decadent!
- Risotto - best I've ever had (we have tried many times and always been underwhelmed). Texture was spot on. Real depth of flavor when you had the shrimp and shiitake's in one bite. Would recommend they add a touch more shrimp (cut up pieces) and shittake to ensure this carries into every bite.
- Branzino filet - well prepped (no bones), well cooked, well seasoned, classic flavors. Delicious.
Dessert:
- Olive oil cake - absolute home run dish. Creative, beautiful, absolutely unique and delicious. Really a wow plate.
Drinks:
- Heatwave - loved it. Not too sweet, great flavor. Perfectly balanced and WAY too easy to drink.
- Kyoto Kiss - another great cocktail. Not too sweet, well presented.
Overall really liked the place. Ambiance beautiful. Attention to detail in the tableware, decor, lighting, servers uniforms etc.
Food isn't quite Michelin-star fine-dining in terms of execution (YET, but it's close) but most importantly: it was delicious! Pricing reasonable too. Great date night and addition to the local culinary scene.
Recommended! Will be back.
