My wife and I had read the reviews and booked a table in the tasting menu restaurant, which is located upstairs. Be warned, this is a fairly small restaurant and, even though Covid-19 restrictions have been eased, the seating is very close together. I guess so the restaurant can squeeze in as many customers as possible. Be prepared to overhear lots of different conversations as you dine, which is very off-putting. Also, we were sat next to a window that was drafty, even though someone had vulgarly stuck tape over the closed window. No other seating available.
Let's move on to the dining. After paying close to $500 for two, our expectations were reasonably high. We should have managed our expectations more appropriately, as this was terrible.
We both started with a piece of roasted squash that had several sauces squirted over the top. Did not look great, but surprisingly tasted okay.
We were then served some hot and spicy mess (Believe me, I am certainly not misusing this word!) that was referred to as 'Smoked Grains and Parsnip' with harissa, dates and spiced almonds. The appearance of this dish was awful, it was overly complicated and did not taste very nice. I really am not sure why this was served.
We chose the tuna and foie gras starter, thinking this unusual combination would be unique and tasty. We were wrong, it did not work. Furthermore, my wife had to report a string of fat, which was laced through her foie gras. Very unpleasant. The robotic server thanked us for drawing this to his attention.
Next up was roasted monkfish with brown butter, lemon, capers and charred broccoli. It was okay. The fish was overcooked, but given our dreadful starting courses, it was a slight step up.
We both had the grilled pork collar with hay smoked carrots, candied pistachio, sesame and black garlic puree. This piece of meat had should have been cooked 'low and slow'. However, my cut was still fatty and very disappointing. Problems with quality here.
Yuzu sherbet with black sesame crumble and coconut foam was alright. A bit of a palate-cleanser before dessert. I would suggest difficult to mess this up.
For dessert, I had Chocolate-Coffee Torchon with Irish cream and cocoa nibs. Not bad. My wife had the Angel Food Cake with olive oil ice cream, cajeta (Mexican caramel sauce, so I'm told!), pineapple and passionfruit. Guess what, the cake was dry.
Service was efficient, but robotic. Do not expect any humor from the servers. The wine-pourer (he was not a sommelier) short changed my $20 glass of wine, which was very displeasing. I ended up drinking cocktails. By this stage, all hope had been lost, as had my desire to complain.
The atmosphere was vibrant but, as mentioned before, tables were very close together making seating uncomfortable.
We would not recommend the food, the atmosphere or the service. Do yourself a favor, go somewhere else and you'll probably save money. As for the restaurant, you really need to up your game to compete in this very busy market.
There is one last thing I should like to mention which seemed quite symbolic of this venue. A fellow customer was coincidentally celebrating his birthday, and his server simply placed one lit candle in his dessert. That's right, one candle in the dessert that he'd ordered. Wow, what customer service! I guess that pretty much sums up the restaurant and its staff.
