I thought I had died and gone straight to heaven when the first dish of the Traditional tasting menu came out. It was superb and so were all the other dishes that followed it. The sommelier was attentive and helpful. He made navigating the generous wine list a much easier task. It can get loud but the food transports you to a different dimension, so you might not even notice. Best meal I've had in a while. Will definitely be back!
