What a treat this was !First thing I noticed was that the tables were NOT crammed together to get as many guests in as possible to help that bottom dollar,...space brings a little more privacy. The waiter may have been the owner, if he wasn't , then he is what all owners would like, someone that takes a personal interest in customer service. Unique offerings on a weekly changing and unique ordering procedure. I am no foodie connoisseur , but I do believe in presentation being a big deal, and this Chef/artist did not disappoint! Now when given the opportunity to present different flavours to a customer, it is not uncommon for a chef to present these flavours in an over-powering manner, which is not only downright silly, but it can take away from the other flavours that are being presented! There was a very pleasant array of flavours that gave the guest an opportunity to enjoy with the tongue the same way a picture can be a feast for the eyes.very nice indeed!we WILL be back!

The most impressive thing is each dish is hand prepared and presented literally picture perfect French Laundry stile. Won't describe the dishes but each was unique with multiple flavours and textures bursting off your palate. They make their own butter and bread which leaves you wanting more (and more).The food is why you are going as the service is adequate and the dining room ambience OK. Go for the incredible food experience and just accept it is pricy for the neighbourhood and the portions are small. They also have a great wine list and outdoor patio.

We had the five course meal with the optional wine pairings. So tasty, so savoury, so wonderful. It was a luxury meal with a premium price but we felt it was worth it. We will definitely be back in the early fall to see what inspiration the changing of the seasons brings to the kitchen of Anew Table.

I would like to see this place become either more cozy and quiet, or turn the lights up a bit and have some fun! Feels like it’s stuck in between and isn’t sure what it wants to be. Overall, the value was good, but not the kind of place most people are going to justify on a regular basis. That said, compared to other higher end, set menu options, it was very reasonable.
