We also ordered the red pearl drink and the hey hey mai tai, both of which were excellent. The food was incredibly flavorful and beautifully presented. At $56 per person, the price for the chef's selection was very reasonable. We loved the atmosphere, and our waiter was exceptionally friendly and accommodating. Before serving each dish, they provided an explanation of its ingredients. Overall, my partner and I had a wonderful experience at Traif, and we highly recommend it. If you enjoy surprises, the chef's selection is definitely the way to go!

My personal favorites were the Scallops, Tuna Tartare, and the duck breast. **Service: 5/5** Our waiter was attentive and knowledgeable. They welcomed us and inquired if it was our first visit, then took the time to introduce various items on the menu and offer recommendations. **Ambiance: 5/5** The restaurant offers both indoor and outdoor seating. I chose to sit inside since it was a bit chilly outside, and I loved the atmosphere. The music was at a perfect volume, and they were playing city pop, which added to the enjoyable vibe. Overall, this restaurant is a definite must-visit. I would most likely return!
