I stopped by here on Friday night on my own for a quick bite to eat. I have eaten here before.
I was seated at the bar (no reservation) which was fine, since I like to watch chefs work. I ordered a small Sashimi, beef tataki, and Lamb Chuleta.
Service was prompt, though I think they need to remove the seat closest to the till as having them come to process stuff while I ate was a little offputting (I opted to sit there, I understand, however, I wasn't aware they would be there that frequently).
The beef tataki was good, not the best I've had, but certainly a reasonable sized portion.
The Sashimi was fresh and well prepared, though, at $35 for 9 pieces, I consider this almost daylight robbery (Yes I knowingly ordered it at that price). By comparison the following night I got a similar quality and sized portion for $18 elsewhere.
The lamb was amazingly tender and the bones were beautifully caramelised in their own sugars. What wasn't so good, was the eggplant coriander sauce that accompanied it, which lacked a strong enough eggplant flavour and or seasoning, but was pretty spicy (Peruvian I guess).
The surroundings were very nice, it's pretty upmarket. Service itself was good. Food arrived promptly, I managed to get through the 3 dishes in around 40 minutes!
