Degustation

Tasty, creative food and excellent service could easily sum up this Euro tapas style restaurant that features a decent selection of wines, but one can't miss the fact that the chef and his crew prepare the food in full view leaving little chance for the ol' fast-food lugie to end up in your food (but that's another story). Here the meals are well thought out and beautifully presented so you don't walk away feeling as though your hard-earned money didn't reel in a value meal. Just don't expect anything to come super-sized.

Grub: 8.7
Vibe: 8
Damage: $$$$
Faves: Crudo, Pork Cheek, Warm Mushroom Salad, Poached Egg w/Asparagus (mostly from Tasting Menu)
