Possibly the best kept secret of Phoenix! With a somewhat smaller dining area as opposed to chain restaurants, this unique, upscale, fine dining establishment earns its keep on quality service to customers, not quantity of throughput. It is a higher end restaurant, so if you expect that, then you won't get sticker shock. Compared to other higher end fine dining, it's actually very reasonable with appetizers in the $20s and main courses in the $30s. We had a reservation through Yelp, so my table was ready when I arrived, which is always nice. Also, there is valet parking service since the parking lot can be crowded, but I found a spot without a problem before I saw the valets.\n\nWe started our meal with the hamachi crudo appetizer, which was delicious! I don't know how they get such fresh fish in Arizona, but whatever they're doing is working! The service staff was very attentive and on their game, pulling plates as soon as we finished and bringing out the huge Diver Scallops next. Again, it was absolutely scrumptious! My mouth is now watering just remembering how perfectly prepared it was. For the main course I enjoyed the delectable AZ honey glazed Scottish salmon with curried potato cake and a side of kale greens. The salmon was perfectly prepared, and went very well with the sides and glaze. The potato cake was delicious as well, but the kale really surprised me by how well prepared it was. I wish I could get the chef's recipe because I've never been able to get kale to taste so good! Finally, I finished the night with the apple puff pastry, which has flavors reminiscent of a country apple pie your grandma might have baked, but completely inside of a flaky pastry.\n\nIf you're looking for a classy, quiet restaurant with an amazing menu perfectly prepared and served to entertain an important client, take that special someone out, or just treat yourself, then look no further! I highly recommend this place, and can't wait to go back.
