Just enjoyed a beautiful meal at August! The hubs treated me to August for my birthday. This place is wonderful and worth the extra money.
We started with drinks. I had the Lavender Ford. The balance between lemon and lavender was stunning. Not too floral and not too citrus. Anything with lavender often gets too floral but not this time.

Our amuse bouche egg cup was like the best part of an everything bagel with cream cheese. Delicious garlic & scallion.

I had the spanish octopus with Benton Bacon as an app. The bacon was smokey but sweet stunningly good a d the octopus was perfectly cooked and delicious.

My flounder ponchatrain was great but not stunning, but my husbands duck dish was our of this world!

We asked for a wine pairing with our meal and that elevated our meal for sure! The sommelier knows her stuff!

I finished with the pavlova and it was light and citrusy and beautiful. The candied ginger sorbet and lime flavor just dance on your palate beautifully.

August is worth it! Come here,
Treat
