ALARA seconded! Wonderful experience if you immerse your table in the shared dining experience. After going to Emery and SWClybourne, I was expecting a higher end same experience. Pleasantly not so, the shared idea with all the courses, the timing to enjoy it (they ask if you want to hurry or take the time per course) with so much Celiac/gluten friendly was amazing. You can start with a bunch of fun craft cocktails, several coming out with what looked like frozen with liquid nitrogen and brought out in a glass container to release the vapor. Fun. A few highlights of our courses - the lobster/shrimp appetizer was perfectly textured and freshest of fresh, the korean wagyu corn dogs are not to be missed (and GF patent pending), the caesar salad was more than our 4 could finish with fun parmesan croutons. Didn't love the vegetarian bolognese (are only non-GF choice), the pasta just was too mushy/meaty but at the same time we had scallops that were to die for. Capped it off pork shank tacos that were so tender and flavorful with a make your own so all the sides could be done by each person's taste. Cleansed the palate at the end with the raspberry sorbet and the orange creamsicle desserts. Would get them again - sorbet very flavorful but needs a crunch, creamsicle so cloudy but needs a a slight more punch of flavor. Loved it. Recommend. — at Alara.
