MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

One Star: High quality cooking

Together with his co-owner and wife, Katrina Bravo, Chef Jenner Tomaska lays bare lofty ambitions at this airy atelier. The minimalist, well-lit space evokes an art gallery, complete with a high-concept tasting that's aimed at blurring the boundaries between art and dining.
The show begins with intriguing bites served at standing tables just inside. The multicourse meal that follows features a variety of dishes, each offered on custom pieces made by local artists. Flavorful compositions showcase unexpected combinations, as in a day lily masquerading as a taco, filled with a sweet-and-sour squash compote and green goddess cream. A plate blending smoked cashew, julienne of Granny Smith apple, heart of palm and truffle is equally delightful.
