Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Western Addition

We celebrated two birthdays and it was everyone’s first time. Our server Michael was incredibly knowledgeable but also super down to earth and made all of us feel comfortable. We don’t usually eat out and don’t have an extensive understanding of wines/ cuts of beef. All of his recommendations were spot on and I would definitely recommend Harris to anyone and everyone. The lobster was heavenly, the executive prime rib was OUT OF THIS WORLD, steak tartare was the best I’ve ever had, and the list goes on. I will definitely be coming back in the next few months! Sorry Maestro’s, we found a new place to dine out 🤣

Super happy with the service! Came to celebrate my birthday and was able be sat early and enjoy the energy of the restaurant! I love the juicy cuts of meat and my party was able to finish their meat and get an extra slice after!

Everything went great!!! Except waitress was slow to get to our table but when she finally did everything was smooth Antonio was great and made everyone feel welcomed. It was my fiancée first time their and he loved the place.

We got lucky getting the best table in the restaurant, across from the bar in a nook under the stairs, so we easily heard each other! We chose a plant forward menu and our waiter Kai (sp?) decided on the order of the dishes. I’d trust his judgment again because we had a great time. The pigs head hid a shaved fennel and pear salad underneath. I delightfully learned how different parts of fennel tastes when shaved so finely. The Hokkaido scallops were soooo good and fresh and compared to a sushi restaurant, a very good value. My partner normally doesn’t like shellfish but he loved the scallops. We ended the savory portion of the meal with the seaweed noodles and the grilled cabbage with dill pickle butter and roe. Both plates had amazing, complimentary sauces and Kai brought us some bread to savor the last drops. The One Punch Man cocktail complemented entire the meal so well with its fruity yet creamy flavor. We got the chocolate semifreddo for dessert for the texture. It had a toasted umeboshi meringue that tasted like dates if they were slightly pickled. I left food drunk and with very happy tastebuds. I loved the restraint in all the flavors. I think a lot of dishes could’ve easily gone sideways in less capable hands, or even the meal because this menu had a lot of citrus and pickled items, and instead they nailed it just right.

Loved it. Worth the hype! Great concept good service too!
