The owner is a charming man who welcomes you as you walk in and explains the wine list and courses, and offers you a cocktail before taking you through the speakeasy-style bookcase in the back to the dining room.
We started with some amazing bread and butter infused with sage, and two amuse-bouche: one lobster roll, and one tournedos Rossini, both a pleasant wake up to the taste buds, which we washed down with a delicious glass of white wine recommended to us by the owner. We finished the openers with beetroot in a carrot marinade, which was quite pleasant.
We then made our way to the main courses, the duck ravioli and veal, both very tasty, creatively constructed, and a pleasure to the eye. We were recommended a bottle of Syrah from a small local producer, which we loved.
The only miss for us was the dessert, which was lacking the same flavor intensity as the other dishes, but was still good. I would say they were a victim of their own success with the opening dishes, and we were expecting more perfection.
Overall an amazing meal, amazing hospitality, and a reminder to all what great restauranteurs are all about.
