“Tough to put into words. We did the counter experience and the 10+ course menu was “Kin and Kith” focused on dishes inspired by the closest people in the head chef’s life. Every dish had a genuine heartfelt story behind it, we’re beautifully visually presented, and tasted incredible. It would be hard to describe the tastes of every dish we tried, not only due to the number of dishes but also the complexity of flavors and textures. The photos we’ve included show the menu and foods tasted. Our absolute favorites were the sundubu and unagied fire roasted octopus (#5), Mt. Lassen Steelhead hot (#4), and kuro wagyu bavette (#8). We also did the non-alcoholic beverage pairing and especially loved the strawberry hot TODO face. The vibe was not over the top fancy but rather upscale earthy and homey. The service was fantastic all the employees were very attentive. It was amazing to see how carefully coordinated all the chefs and servers were with one another, beautiful communication. Our expectations were very high given the price, but they were met, if not exceeded. We are not Michelin aficionados and wouldn’t do this regularly but would 100% recommend it to someone who has never had the experience before.”

“This was an experience as much as it was food. The chef created a clever 10 course menu all based on interesting people. The food was really good and the wait staff did a great job explaining each course. By the time we were done we were very full. I’d recommend for the experiences for sure. The location is quite modest but other than that it’s great! I would go again.”

“As someone who loves food and travels to eat- this is easily one of the best restaurants I have been to! They deserve more than one Michelin! Cannot wait to go back, especially for the banana bread they pack you for next days breakfast!!”

“An amazing dining experience. Chef tells stories of his travel adventures that inspire his food, and it shows in the flavors. 10 courses and cocktails pairings make the experience a true taste adventure. All the staff is great, smiling , courteous and you can tell are hand selected for their roles. The kitchen and front staff all seem to have fun and enjoy working there, which i always admire as a sign of a great resteraunt. We enjoyed the Germany experience with my SIL for her birthday, and they made her feel so special with a hand written birthday note at her arrival and a song with a candle at dessert. I cant wait to go again and experience some other countries flavors.”

“My first time at this local gem. The interior is modest and non-pretentious, very welcoming. A personalized menu marked my seat at the counter; staff were attentive and provided information about every pour. It's easy to understand why it's Michelin-renowned for food and wine. Here are photos of my favorites from the Munich to Mosel menu. The only courses that fell short for me were the octopus and schnitzel, both of which were dry - the octopus also very salty. Still it was A LOT of excellent food, more than I could eat, beautifully presented. The pairings were spot on - and again, more that I could drink. Recommend highly.”
