I have been looking for a place and a menu that will suit our different tastes. I was also looking rather for a quiet place that will allow to have conversations at the table at the normal voice. This place is aesthetically pleased with dimmed lights and nice music on the background. Tables are decorated nicely and have a good size, so you dont have to kick anyone with your elbows and constantly adjusting a chair when people passing by. The staff seems friendly and attentive. We were welcomed once we walked in and seated. A server seems to know menu well. The menu offers 2 ($55) or 3 ($70) course meal. At the beginning we were offered complimentary bread rolls with butter. Bread was nice and warm with black sesame seeds on top. The butter was whipped and easy to spread. We have tried several dishes: venison carpaccio, trevolli sashimi, and fig salad. I love venison and I found carpaccio outstanding. It had a light dressing, and two types of onions: fresh shallot and crispy fried red onion. Delicious ! Fig salad was great ! Very nice combo of figs, red and yellow beets, and watermelon. The dressing was delicious. Sashimi was also outstanding. Portions were great! For main we tried lamb, marker fish and gnocchi. Lamb was nicely roasted, not chewy, very flavorful. Market fish that supposed to be poached came ( server has informed ahead of time with a problem with a sous vide machine) pan seared with a very nice risotto and fresh thinly sliced radish on top. This was delightful ! The radish made a great combo to go with a fish and risotto was very creamy and tasty. Gnocchis have a very fluffy structure. Although they were made with a goat cheese, it was not overpowering at all. I would recommend this dish to try. Gnocchi were served on a bed of chopped zucchini. The pesto sauce made a final touch to that dish. We also had to try dessert dishes. We chose brown sugar pavlova and fejoya crem brûlée. Pavlova was decorated with fresh strawberries on top. Crem brûlée came with a fejoya sorbet on the side. We all thought that the dinner was delicious and portions were a good size. We really enjoy the dinner and was happy with a choice of the restaurant! Definitely will be back !

Few things I thought could be better : -There was a 15% surcharge that I was not aware off while making reservation. I have not seen that on their website either. However, in the email where they asked to confirm the reservation was a fine print of extra holiday surcharge of 15% and 2 % for paying with credit card ( this one i knew);

• There is a problem with a sous vide machine that forced them to change of fish preparation. At the time when we were explained items on the menu, I was interested and asked how the fish is prepared. The server replied that its poached. That was good for me and so I ordered that. A few minutes later a server came back to me saying that they cannot prepare it poached as they are having problem with an aparatus and I was asked if I would like to get anything else. It was not that tragical for me as i wanted to try the fish, but that might upset someone else. I have to say that our server was very kind to offer me to have a look at menu again.
• when we walked in, servers were hanging out at the bar area in the dining room and having a chat with a bartender. We were first guests in the house, as they just opened. It looked little bit unprofessionally.
