    This was a wonderful experience. My wife and I went for our honeymoon, and the team at Enigma made a great effort to make it special. The food was amazing, the pairings were great, and the staff was probably the best part. The service was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. The food was a wonderful expression of a combination of techniques and flavors that made this an all around fantastic meal. We have been to many Michelin starred restaurants, and they don’t always deliver. However I am dumbfounded that Enigma Yorkville only has one star. An absolute must visit, and for us an absolute must revisit.
