    As usual, nothing to critique. Food, service and decor all stellar. Pork belly appetizer is a must try. The crispy, sweet and smoky flavor with pecan garnish is a symphony of flavors that play in your mouth like a finely tuned orchestra. Logan was a standout server. Neva sold us on the vanilla cheesecake which was the most beautiful presentation I have ever seen for cheesecake. This 15 year establishment is a well oiled machine. Make Posana a priority for your next foodie experience.
