Reservations
Reservations are strongly recommended for lunch and dinner. The reservation line is normally busy though so keep trying, it's worth it.
Tables are approximately 50 inches square and overly generous for a party of four. The seats are also comfortable. You have an option for seating either leather and upholstered banquettes or moulded plywood Eames style chairs, both of which are equally relaxing. There is plenty of room to maneuver between tables, so if you need to get up to use the restroom you are by no means cramped.
The ambiance is soft and elegant.
The restrooms are located upstairs toward the back of the restaurant, a light music plays as background. They are mood lit and have unusual highly polished stone sinks. The restrooms are quite convenient if you are dining upstairs, but in case you're just at the bar there are also restrooms downstairs. |
