What to Order
Chef's Tasting Menu
A multi-course journey through the seasonal menu, allowing you to experience a variety of dishes curated by the chef.

Inside Scoop
- The menu changes seasonally, so there's always something new to try.
- Consider sitting at the bar for a solo dining experience and to watch the open kitchen action.
- The owners, Eric and Tam, are often present and interact with guests, adding a personal touch.
- Request a booth off to the side for a more intimate experience, especially for special occasions.
- Despite the small venue, it can get quite noisy from the overhead music, which might make conversation difficult.
