The wagyu striploin and otoro sushi in the same meal is a strange and wonderful sentence to type. Service was attentive without hovering. Already booked again.

Brought my parents for an anniversary and the chef sent out an extra course. The room is small and warm and you can tell every plate gets attention. Worth the drive from Princeton.

Best hand-pulled tagliatelle bolognese I've had outside the city. The bar lineup is short but every cocktail was right. The cedar room smells like the sushi pass.

Reservation system on OpenTable is easy, kitchen runs on time, music at the right volume. Going back next weekend for the omakase.
