My fiance and I both got amazing dishes and were thoroughly pleased with all of the service. The tuna crudo and the seabass curry were definitely the favorites for us. We also enjoyed some very well crafted cocktails. I think our only dig on this experience was I specifically requested a good seat. We were sat 12 inches from a couple on each side. Now I know this is normal in a lot of ways BUT this was a $450 dinner you'd expect there to be room for you. Please please never do this to anyone who is specifically asking for a GOOD seat. I even got the reservation at a later time for this reason. Anyway the food and service were awesome otherwise.

We have been there other than Valentine’s Day. Regular menu is much better, but restaurant layout is ridiculous. They cram as many people as possible into the restaurant. Almost sitting on top of each other.Asked for a booth a month ago and did not honor our request. Staff overall was nice and attentive though. in my opinion, experience was not worth the price.

Unfortunately, it is clear they used temporary tables to fit more people in. These tables were small and wobbly, and cocktails, water, and food barely fit. Our server even said that this is not their normal table configuration, and we were maybe 1.5 feet away from the next table, close enough to grab the food off of my neighbor’s plate. Why charge over $400 for 2 people if you can’t provide a true fine dining experience? My partner and I only eat at this cost maybe twice a year, and we felt that the restaurant oversold the seats. Even the women’s bathroom had a line, since they only had 2 working stalls and over 150 diners. Maybe the experience would have been 5 stars on a regular day and worth it, but for our experience it felt like we were second class patrons compared to the diners in their permanent tables.

One of the most expensive steaks I’ve ever eaten. Worth it. As the server said…decadent and unctuous. And the bonchon was perfect. Would have preferred to sit next to my date instead of across from, but I totally get it. Only so many tables and so much space. Our server was attentive, engaging, just the right amount of funny, and enhanced the experience. Every plate surpassed expectations by the 4oz A5 Miyazaki steak and deconstructed tuna crudo were my favorites.
