My boyfriend took me here to celebrate our 2 year anniversary and I was so spoiled with this amazing experience. It was such a fancy and adorable place to celebrate! I loved the aura here -- the dim ambiance with lit candles made it so cozy, fancy, and intimate. Here's what we tried:
Root to Berry:
- A non-alcoholic seltzer flavored with strawberry, lime, & ginger
- I didn't like the ginger flavor in it, it made it too spicy
DreamLife:
- Another non-alcoholic seltzer flavored with vanilla, lemon, orange, & orange blossom water
- The orange & vanilla combo was yummy
- I liked this one a lot more than the Root to Berry
- Wasn't too sweet which I enjoyed
Roasted Bone Marrow:
- Interestingly topped with caper-raisin relish, celery, & marcona almonds, but surprisingly so good
- Paired with sourdough
- Toppings were soo yummy especially the raisins that added a sweet twist to it
Filet Mignon:
- I ordered this medium rare, and oh my god it was SOOO tender it literally melted in my mouth
- The only reason I didn't enjoy this dish as much is because the filet mignon was topped with blue cheese which I don't like -- I should have gotten it without blue cheese
- The roasted potatoes that it came with was the perfect softness & paired well with the cognac sauce, but it was a bit too bland
Steak Frites:
- Like the Filet Mignon, I ordered the NY strip medium rare and it was so tender, so juicy, so yummy & literally melted in my mouth
- Loved the buttery, garlic sauce that topped this steak. It paired SO well together
- Normally comes with rosemary fries, but my boyfriend loves truffle fries so we asked for a substitution & they were so generous to make that accommodation that for us!
- The truffle flavor was so rich, but I thought the fries were just slightly overcooked. It was really crispy, and I wish it had been a little softer, but overall were still great
To top off our meal, we ended with the lemon & blueberry creme brulee which was also so mind blowing yummy. The custard was so rich, and I loved the layer or caramelized sugar on top. I also really liked the unique lemon flavor that made it taste extra special.
The service here was fantastic. They were so polite, accommodating, and well-mannered. They changed all our utensils after every course. I would highly recommend coming here to celebrate a special occasion!
