a must try. the only haute cuisine in the area. grateful that chef david took us in with same day reservation on father’s day. he was so generous to even give us bottle of wine as father’s day gift. this is thus far the only time we emptied all our plates while eating out. a genuine 5 star savory food. surprised that i walked out not feeling bloated with food. we had the 4 course meal. would wanna try the 5 course meal next time but i believe need to reserve 72hrs ahead. you can smell the food as he prep and cook them, its like a torture mouth watering moment

Specifically requested this place for my birthday dinner and it did not disappoint! Very intimate experience. The food was fresh and prepared with a great level of care. It was delicious! No other restaurant in the area holds a candle to it. The chef provided great conversation as well!

I processed my thoughts for several hours after spending a few hundred dollars (2 people) at this restaurant based on the reviews that have been submitted. I do not understand the 5 star reviews. With that being said, the food Tasted fabulous…. every course, we did the 5-course meal ($105/ea..additional 35 of you get the filet w frau graois) and everything was delicious. However, it was not worth the price $$$. We generally enjoy spending money on food and wine and enjoy both immensely. we do not think that the value was worth the price here. I think that the plating itself Severely lacked color and appeal.. more creative work on the plates would have made the price tag a little bit more palatable. $75+ bottles of wine should absolutely be served with a decanter. Creme Brulee should be served warm. Reviews really built us up for this place but we left feeling disappointed at how much we spent vs what we experienced. Again, food tasted great but was not worth the $$$$ with severely lacked color/artistic plating appeal.

My fiancé surprised me for Valentine’s Day with this incredible restaurant!!! We both had the 5 course meal and can’t say enough great things about the food. Everything tasted amazing and great portion sizes. Great wine selection as well. Honestly just the experience itself was fantastic and can’t wait to spend our next celebration here!!!

This was quite literally the best food and best experience I have ever had at a restaurant. My fiancée and I went out for a much-needed date night and we could not be more satisfied with the quality of service we received, as well as the quality of each dish. The chef, who was also our server, was very wholesome and genuine, and made this night a memorable one for us. I would highly recommend for anyone to have this experience as well.

I do not hesitate to give David and his restaurant 5 stars. The quality of the food was superb, and the experience was special. There is nothing like it in Iowa City and the quality is second to none. Worth every penny and then some. Thank you!

This was some of the best food my wife and I have ever had. Chef David was amazing and even let us watch him cook our food. The food is on the more expensive side but definitely worth it in my opinion. I advise anyone going to this restaurant to try as many things as possible, even if they out the norm for you. It is unlikely you will be disappointed. Thanks for a great anniversary Chef David!

My fiancé and I just ate here for the first time ever. This is the BEST food we have ever had. The main course was so delicious I cannot stress this enough. It is worth the money, it is such an experience. The ambiance, service, and food was just outstanding. We will be returning here, no doubt. I cannot stress how genuine the chef is!

Great food. Hidden Gem in Iowa City. Not a big restaurant group. Just a guy making good food for people.

Excellent meal and service. You are waited on by the owner/chef. Every bite is amazing. The meal selection is limited to a choice of four courses. Plan on spending a minimum of $200, but the food is worth it. This is an unexpected gem anywhere, but especially in North Liberty Iowa. There are only four tables and reservations are recommended. Same day reservations require a credit card to hold the table and there is a substantial no show fee because the food is fresh.
