    James, Alec and Baxter were a delight! They were super engaging and very knowledgeable. They definitely added to the overall chill yet elevated vibe of the experience. The food an epic journey. Each course represented something seasonal with fresh ingredients!! Our personal highlights included the Suzuki Crudo with blueberries, Tuna tartare fish chip, and the Barley ice cream was the best ending we could have asked for! We are looking forward to coming back!
