Wonderful monthly dinners

We come here pretty much every month and the food is consistently excellent. And different each time.

Memorable dining experience

I arrived just in time for my seating, and the host showed me to a table that they’d set just for me. But since they gave me the option to sit at a table by the window, I went with that instead so that I could enjoy the last rays of sunshine. The meal was delightful: the produce was well-sourced and allowed to show off its natural flavors while being mildly enhanced with light seasonings and sauces. I loved the watermelon salad! I also tried a dry cider on draft from a winery in Alameda called Urban Legend since I wasn’t sure that I’d be able to find it elsewhere. For just over $60 including tax and tip (drinks extra), I think this was a really great deal. Can't wait for the chance to go back and see what the chef cooks up!
