“The food is truly great, it’s a lovely atmosphere, and they have a private dining room if that’s your scene (I had my wedding dinner there last year post-city hall wedding with my parents). The duck and the steak are expertly cooked and to share and the pasta is so good.”

H2
“There are a handful of Michelins though that are more accessible cost-wise in the $100-200 range that are really phenomenal meals. My idea of a good michelin is that I can go as a repeat customer like Nakazawa, 63 clinton, four horseman, francie, jua, jeju noodle bar.”
