Every dish was delectable. Fresh & flavourful & plated beautifully while still making sense. As another reviewer perfectly said: impressive & creative without being pretentious. The chefs really know what they are doing when it comes to interesting & tasty combinations & processes.

The space is quirky & intimate - which fits the mile ex neighborhood well.

We did not have drinks but had the cucumber shrimp salad, the duck, tandoori wild mushrooms, focaccia, & passion fruit crudo. All highly recommended by myself & my chef partner.

Didn't get the warm service the other reviewers mentioned, but they were efficient & didn't affect our experience either way.

Great little neighborhood spot with excellent food & service. Chef owned & operated, can't go wrong with anything your order. We had the stracciatella (a must!), the ray & the duck & all were excellent. Went on tuesday night & we were lucky to be served by the chef owners who described each dish with such passion! highly recommended spot!

Wow!! Drove by this little spot one night .. said to myself this looks like it could be good . & Wow! Was I right ! 10/10! Little 25 seater .. sat at the bar . Service, food & drinks were 10/10! Owners / chefs were very friendly & passionate about their food.
Bartender/ waitress ( Stella) very nice & recommended amazing dishes . I'm on a no alcohol vibe now so they had some cool options! My wife tried some cocktails & wine & she loved it ! Will 100% go back !
Also very well priced ! We had 5 dishes, 2 cocktails, 2 glasses of wine , 2 non alcoholic beers. 150$ before tip & tax .

Pork Echine, Garlic Scapes, Olives, Chamomile, Japanese Whiskey Tare 🐷❤?🥃

I have to honestly say that @cafedenise is probably one of my favorite experiences I have had in 2025 so far. If you can go there & eat modestly it won't be too expensive but to be honest with you the portions are a little bit small but flavor packed. I wish they were a little bit larger but otherwise amazing.

It's Tapas style dishes meaning they're really meant to share & each one that we had was better than the next . For me the star of the show was the pork, a absolutely flavor sensation the whiskey you taste that tare gives a #umami bomb everything extremely well balanced.

We got other star dishes like there halibut Crudo with passion fruit there Caesar salad that had fresh anchovies marinated accompanied with Nordic shrimp, this Buratta dish that honestly left me pretty speechless I've never had a dish prepared this way with Beretta & honestly 11 out of 10! Everything just kept getting better & better & better even the end of the meal where we had their Basque cheesecake with Thai tea & dolce de leche was FOODGASMIC 🙌.

It's hard to kind of pinpoint the exact Style of food but you can clearly see that they take elements from Japan, elements from Thailand as well as French cooking techniques it's really a spectrum of everything but if I had to guess their influence is more in the Asian sector but fine dining flare! I've been twice so far in a 3 week span & I'm definitely going to come back again!

The Two Chefs in the kitchen both own the restaurant & so far are absolutely killing it great job guys!

Un de nos restos préférés pour une date décontractée, on ne s'en lasse pas. Il s'agit d'un petit local en long avec la cuisine ouverte au fond. L'ambiance est très cool & invitante. On y mange des petits plats soigneusement travaillés, les saveurs sont toujours au rendez-vous. La cheffe est adorable & vient souvent servir un plat avec le sourire. Les vins & cocktails sont tout aussi soigneusement choisis. Le service est amical, attentif & relax. Ce resto, c'est un petit bijou.
