My experience here was phenomenal despite the fact that I did not like some of the courses. Let me elaborate-- my palate hasn't acquired the taste for many flavors used widely in the restaurant business. For someone like me, eating a set course menu can be anxiety inducing since I have a limited range of food I can consume, but this was part of a birthday surprise for my spouse whose palate appreciates a wider spectrum of flavors.
Many of the courses were delicious and such an exciting new experience for my palate! I also have to spotlight the complexity of the foams, sauces, garnishes, etc. with each plate which were really really good (it left me wanting more). Additionally, the plating was a work of art, the restaurant had limited seating so it was serene even at capacity, and the service was flawless (shout out to Abdul who gave a polished and exacting introduction of every single dish set on our table) -- all in all, it gave the feeling of indulgent luxury.
The only constructive feedback is dessert: I was served two dessert courses and both had citrus. Only one dessert should have had citrus, two is overkill - even my spouse (who eats everything) didn't like the back to back citrus desserts.
If you're a picky eater like me and want to experience a luxurious set course menu - try Oria; of course, you might not like all courses, but it's par for the course when you're a picky eater and I'd still recommend this restaurant as your palate will still dance around at some of the dishes.
