Went here for a celebration and had a fantastic time since we saw theyre a michelin star restaurant. The food was absolutely phenomenal, they have a menu and each person picked one item from each header and they let each person try a different dish so we could try everything. Rolls came free, then we got the bluefin snd pork terrine. Bluefin was delicious, the terrine was something we'd normally never try and while not as good as the tuna it was something unique and tasty. Then we had the shrimp toast and cobia. The shrimp toast was absolutely fantastic, probably our favorite. For the mains, we had the short rib Diane and the eggplant donburri - super unique way to make a shortrib like a steak, it was very good and so glad we tried a vegetarian main bexause the preparation was so delicious and almost tasted like eel with the sauce over rice. Really good! For desserts, we got the key like pavlova and the Vietnamese tiaramisu the key lime pavlova was to die for. Service was wonderful, wine pairings were great! Absolutely reccomend it for a nice date night or special occasion. If we're ever in the area again, definitely on our list!

One of the most flawless and thoughtful dining experiences I’ve ever had. We went for my wife’s birthday and from the moment we walked in - everything went great. The GM greeted her by name and wished her a happy birthday, the menu had her name on it, and they even comped us a few dishes along the way when we couldn’t make up our minds on which amazing dish to choose from. So many things stand out - but the shrimp toast was so good we ordered a second dish before the end of the night. Overall, such a perfect mixture of creativity, quality, and intentional hospitality. Worth every penny and would absolutely recommend this place for special occasions! Also, we sat at the bar and got excellent guidance from Nick that really helped us choose the best path through the menu 🙌 thanks for everyone R&O team! Menu recs: “Cacio e pepe” = my favorite Shrimp toast with lemongrass aioli = order 2x Gnocchi Pretty much anything & everything…
