The way this restaurant works makes it seem like they've been in business (successfully) for years. Our wait-person had only been on the job a few days, but had tried everything on the menu and was able to make some spot-on recommendations. We started with the coconut calamari, and wished that we'd had a whole octopus'-worth, it was so tasty. For dinner, we had the sea bass with oyster mushrooms and a beef dish (that I wish I could remember the name of). Being allergic to peanuts, I was unable to try the beef, but the fish was devine. The mushrooms were delicate and perfect. I asked our waitress to recommend a wine to go with the fish, and the Gewurtztrameiner she recommended was perfect. We opted not to have dessert, but likely will next time.
Pros: Decor, food, service
Cons: a little salty
