Amazing restaurant, food, host and setting. Food was imaginative and super tasty. Couldn't have asked for a sweeter host with a resident cat and dog there to greet you.

My original review from 2 years ago is below but updating as I visited again last night. This was my 4th visit. Everything about this restaurant is still astounding. Food, service and ambience is perfect. The attention to detail, perfect execution and passion in each dish is just wonderful. This restaurant is such a rare find. I really recommend highly. Old Review from 2022 below We took the 10 course tasting menu and every course was fantastic. The service was impeccable and the restaurant is a really beautiful space. The owners have lovingly restored the beautiful building using very creative and sustainable products. As a vegetarian or vegan it's rare to find such an amazing gastronomic experience. I would recommend this very highly. The restaurant is close to the Casa de Musica so very accessible from downtown.
