One of my favorite restaurants in the state. Been here many times and the food always amazes me. Chefs there truly know how to make certain flavors you wouldn’t think of shine together in one amazing dish. I personally love sitting at a bar at any restaurant as I prefer easy access to amazing drinks and one on one time with the bartenders. You won’t regret the service you receive if you do the same. The patio area is also a gem and fun if you have a decent group of people as well. Try this place at least once, you won’t regret it.

My husband & I tried this restaurant for the first time & loved it!! The service is excellent & very friendly and every dish we tried was well balanced/thought out and delicious! We will be back!

Super amazing restaurant. Was running late after a flight delay and they kept the restaurant open for me. Tried the tasting menu and everything was perfect

Located in Melrose District nice trendy neighbourhood, love the restaurant interior open kitchen and outside seating area which we were seated with mist and fans too cool you down after hot phoenix desert heat. Food was fresh farm to plate with most locally sourced ingredients. Hiramasa crudo, beef tartare and Rigatoni were delicious.Would recommend this place

The food they served was great. We were impressed with their offerings and found the dishes served to be tasty and the wait service was very good. However, the dinner did not justify the exorbitant prices they charge for their meals.Second, we enjoy playing cards whenever we go out to eat and we did the same with this dinner. However, during our dinner it was either the manager or owner came to our table and told us we couldn't play cards because it could be construed as gambling and they could get into trouble. That was the most ridiculous thing I ever heard. Neither the Phoenix Police nor Health Department are going around to restaurants checking to see if people are playing cards. Her statement defied all common sense.This place has a lot of potential, but the pricing structure and odd no-playing-card rules eliminates any future visit to this restaurant.

It was a positive visit to this restaurant. They have a pretty unique menu, but the food tastes exceedingly well. I had a pork belly that was well glazed and delicious. Outdoor seating is available which works very well for dates. Not 5 stars because I wish I didn't have to pay for the very well made Sourdough but it was inexpensive. Everyone we met was kind and pleasant. Will visit again.

My husband and I had an incredible experience. We opted for the tasting menu and were thoroughly impressed. The service was top notch and everything was cooked to perfection. Flavors, textures and presentation were spot-on. We started with the tuna crudo, followed by a sweet potato dish and a broccolini plate. All starters were phenomenal. The pasta course was perfection. For the main course, we had the grilled octopus and the two wash ranch chicken. The chicken was underwhelming but the octopus was delightful. We closed the meal with coffee and desserts. Spend the money, you won't regret it!

Tasty food. They cooked everything perfect. So Everyone should try food in this restaurant. All staff members are nice.

Four people, four cocktails (Best negroni ever), eight savory courses (several best of the best-best steak tartar ever, best pork belly ever, and the CARROTS!), three bottles of wine (expertly curated wine list, and very well priced), and three deserts (I never eat desert, but these were fantastic). Service is extremely professional and engaged and enthusiastic. Dining room is intimate, but quite comfortable.

The atmosphere, the service, THE FOOD. I never post reviews but I had to for this place. It was an awesome experience. “ Let the chef” option on menu was some of the best food o ever had!Robin was our server and somehow was able to be really friendly, fun and SUPER professional.. making us feel we were the only guests she had.
