The kimchi pancakes are a popular dish and a lot of people really like them (myself included). We got the carrot muhammara, kimchi pancakes and the mushroom plate as appetizers. The muhammara with the pancakes was actually a good combo. I was surprised at how amazing the mushrooms were as well. My husband got the duck confit for his main and was very happy with it. I got the steak, medium rare, and it was cooked perfectly. The outside was crispy and the inside pink. We did end up asking for some salt and that elevated the brussels sprouts for me (I like things salty). The only thing my husband and I were not a fan of was the mashed potatoes. They had a creamy gravy mixed in and it wasn't a flavor we personally prefer. Overall, I think the appetizers were very good and I could easily have an entire meal of just the apps. At the end of the meal we were both very full and took most of our main course to go.
Service: The staff was very attentive, knowledgable, and professional. The chef asks that all the food (except dessert) be ordered at one time and they will space it out when they bring it to you. I like this system, it made the experience much more effortless. Although, I think they are still figuring out the flow and pace of the customers because at times there was not enough space on our table for all the appetizers and they were trying to help us clear off mostly empty plates so that felt slightly rushed but I think it's something they will nail down soon.
Atmosphere: I love the interior. It's cozy and has big windows. The furnishings are cool. I am a fan of the design. We did notice that some of the tables for two (like where we were seated) were very close to the other tables (so you can easily hear each other's conversations) if that is something that bothers you it may be a good idea to request different seating. It was not a problem for us as we were not discussing private matters but I wouldn't want to sit there for a first date or a business meeting.
Parking: They have valet and cover the cost of this, so parking was not a problem.
