The place is quite nice, but I was disappointed with my experience. I ordered the sweet potato fries with truffle mayo. When the dish arrived and I tried it, I immediately noticed that the sauce did not taste like truffle mayo at all — it tasted like regular mayo mixed with pesto. I called the waitress and asked if it was actually truffle mayo. She insisted that it was. I explained that it clearly tasted like pesto rather than truffle, but she continued to repeat that it was truffle mayo without checking with the kitchen. As a customer, if I raise a concern like this, I at least expect the staff to consider the possibility and confirm with the kitchen rather than immediately disagree. The sauce even had visible green pieces that looked like pesto, not the darker specks you would normally expect in truffle mayo. Based on the taste and appearance, it really seemed like pesto. Good service would mean taking a moment to verify the issue or offering an alternative solution, such as checking with the kitchen or replacing the sauce. Instead, my concern was dismissed without any attempt to confirm it. Overall, the place itself is nice, but the way this situation was handled was disappointing.
I must say this was a pleasant surprise after my last rather bad experience a few years back. The ribeye was grilled medium rare perfectly, the Japans Trio was pretty good too although the serving could be a bit more generous. Service was pleasant. What strikes me was the demographic shift. It used to be a place frequented by 20 and 30 years old. Today the average age of the visitors is around 50 and up.
The food was tasty about expectations really and ingredients fresh and excellent quality. Presentation was creative and refined. The only fall is the young waitress not clear what we have ordered so that my mother did not have her main dish at the same time as all of us, so that we all eat while she was watching us. Your court came 20mn later and no excuses were given
