This visit was no exception and especially rewarding. After multiple visits through the years, we'd gotten a little too used to our favorite menu options, so it was a happy jolt to see dishes this time that seemed new. Although the menu is not a long one -- it feels like they've winnowed their focus to ensure every item is a gem -- it was so hard to choose from among the very tantalizingly described meals. Everyone ended up with a different dish and we had a great (and delicious!) time sharing bites so we could try everything. Everyone's choice was a winner but I was especially rolling my eyes in ecstasy over the cod and pork dishes. The components are sometimes surprising but consistently amazing choices by the chef. Another thing that made this a definitive 5 stars was my superlative mocktail -- winter holidays and warmth in a glass -- and the lip-smacking reactions of others to their liquor-added cocktails. All had witty names that are evocative of the unique flavor profiles...or just playful for fun's sake. It's unusual to find bar concoctions that aren't just gimmicky but legitimate pleasures, and they nailed it.

I had the Mediterranean Mezzo for my meal and if you'd like it gluten free you can ask for extra cucumbers instead of the pita bread. The waiter was nice enough to bring me the cucumbers after he brought out the dish as there was an abundance of pitas in comparison to the rest of the items. They give you 3 dips which were all delicious. Tzatziki, olive dip and a Muhammara which is a red pepper dip. We then got the Oysters Rockafeller to split. Lots of tobiko. Heavy sausage flavor. I would probably skip those next time. I will say regarding drinks, they have a beautiful cocktail list but my stomach wasn't feeling great so instead of a normal spicy margarita or something similar, I asked for a dirty martini and it came out with a funky flavor. Most likely too much vermouth. The poor waiter took at least ten minutes before returning with a new martini without vermouth. He or the bartender clearly did not know how to make this. If I returned to the area I'd definitely return for a funky cocktail and something a little more adventurous on the menu.
