Our food was creative, inventive, and extremely tasty. Our waiter was knowledgeable, attentive and personable. I have read other comments about the portion sizes being too small--but we didn't find that to be the case, it isn't the kind of restaurant where you go expecting to take a doggie bag home. The music was a bit too loud to hear... more

You leave feeling like you've been on a rollercoaster of yummy goodness. Completely satisfied. Jeff was an awesome waiter. Yes - small portions (for us glutenous Americans) so don't come starving but it was one of the best meals I have ever had!! more

Really amazing flavors - scallops and beet salad both winners (though at $25-$35 for EACH, a bit riduculously priced). BUT TURN DOWN THE MUSIC - could not hear my dinner companion and we were sitting 2 feet away from each other - could not make out anything the waiter was describing. Will not go back until the music volume is... more

I was anxious to try this restaurant after seeing so much about the chef in the media, including the show "Top Chef: Masters".

Immediately upon entering it's got a sheik, urban appeal with lively music playing, low-lighting, hardwood floors, and nice views of the gallery district... more

I took my wife to Graham Elliot last night for her 32nd birthday. Graham Elliot was in the restaurant earlier in the day, but had to leave for a festival at Mellinium Park. Because he couldn't be there to wish Lesley a happy birthday personally, he wrote her a personal note and signed a menu for her. The service was... more

Great mixologists, excellent creative food in a hip restaurant. You don't have to get super dressed up for this fine dining experience. more

Loved the foie gras lollipop with pop rocks! Kobe beef tartare was also really good. Lavender panna cotta was amazing! All in all, a great dining experience. more

We went here with our group of 5. There were only two good entrees - the rest were NOT good. I could not cut my pork chop it was so non-tender. The popcorn was lame - "we don't want you to fill up on bread". I'm an adult -let ME decide what I fill up on! We could barely hear... more
