The location serves well as an intimate dining experience, with patio seating in the alleyway. Go ahead and valet your car as it will be difficult to find parking around the warehouse area.
Started off with a custom-made cocktail from the uber friendly and knowledgeable bartender. He recommended several small plates from the menu (it's a rotating menu and chef so check their website beforehand to know who's cooking, or else just get wonderfully surprised like me.)
Our selection from our menu from Josh Drew were:
Local Squid Braised in Ink was amazingly smoky and perfectly cooked (tender without being chewy or mushy) and bathed in that yummy ink sauce
Grilled Day-Boat Scallops were cooked well with a hint of crispiness and umami flavor from the chanterelle mushrooms
Jidori Chicken were rather small portions but the burnt onion crema gave it enough flavor that I wanted bigger servings
Grilled Pacific Swordfish hit the spot with that exotic taste of anise, meaty and yummy
The service was attentive and personal without being intrusive.
Plus, they have a separate bar with intimate live performances in the basement.
