Food is described one way on the menu (as if using special ingredients) and arrives very basic. The best thing I had were their truffle fries. Max did an excellent job of upsetting and being excited about the food. Wish we shared the same excitement he had describing it while eating. We had the octopus, Rockefeller oysters, maple smoked old fashioned, Empress Lavender lemon sparkling wine cocktail, Kung pao brussels sprouts (not spicy or crispy, did not have toppings so very basic), gruyere Mac n cheese (not much flavor truly), yuca fries, sticky date dessert, & cheesecake. It was a 1st date for me and the first time there... I think the food was so mediocre it affected the date. I think we kept hoping to order enough variety so we could find something to wow us... turns out the truffle French fries & empress cocktail were "it." Max was a sweetheart, though.
