We went here on Valentine's day and were presented with a very cute and intimate experience. The Rosewood hotel, which houses this restaurant, is huge and the walk over was peaceful (and very cold). There's valet parking but it's free if you get your ticket validated by a server.For the food, we both ordered the chef's tasting menu which started off at $275. We opted out of the wine pairing, which was surprisingly almost as much as the tasting menu itself, and got 4 cocktails which did the trick for much cheaper.In addition to the base menu, there were supplemental courses you could also order. The first being a caviar dish which was an incredibly expensive add-on that was more than the base menu... We did not get this one and for how expensive the tasting menu was, I would have expected the base menu to have included some kind of main caviar dish. We ordered the supplemental pasta course, which was just okay. The interior of the pasta tasted good but nothing to warrant an extra $45. The last supplemental course was a cheese souffle and we were struggling to finish this one due to its strange oily feel and taste. The inside also wasn't that soft for a souffle.Going back to the original tasting menu, it was actually pretty good for the most part. There were a lot of courses and we left pretty full. My favorite courses were the bluefin ahi tartare and the A5 tenderloin. The tartare was nicely salted and meshed perfectly with the lemon and almond granita on top. The tenderloin was juicy and buttery as expected.Now for dessert, the small bites were great. Some were sweet chocolatey bites but a certain coconut pastry was exceptional with it's fruity interior. However, along with the disappointing supplemental souffle course preceding the dessert, there was also another pre-dessert course: the kumquat tartare. We can honestly say this was one of the worst dishes we've tasted and we almost could not finish it even with how small it was. My girlfriend thinks it was not cooked all the way through due to its bitter taste.Overall, it was a good Valentine's day experience. The decor and location was excellent and we felt very comfortable dining here. Most of the food was great overall, but for its high price tag, we expected a bit more quality. The supplemental courses were also both not worth the additional price and not that good.
