    One of the best meals of my life and I’ve traveled pretty extensively across the globe. I was honestly blown away to find this restaurant in my backyard here in Portland. We came tonight on a recommendation of a friend and I kid you not, from the very first dish (salad) to the last (tiramisu), the hits did not stop hitting. Every single flavor tonight blew our minds and were perfectly laid out. We will come back again and again!
