I had the tasting menu, and it was delightful. The meal lasted just the right amount of time. I don’t enjoy when restaurants drag out meals too much, this menu had the perfect amount of food and every dish I was served was to my liking which is rare! The dishes I enjoyed the most were the egg custard, the crab, the vegetable dish and the pasta- but really, everything was good. The service was also, very kind. Special thanks to Roman! I would love to visit again in the future.

This was our first experience at a Michelin star restaurant and we were very impressed. The food was amazing. My favorite dish was the butternut squash ravioli. I will dream of that dish. We came to celebrate my husband's birthday and they made it special. We had a great time. Will be back!

Michelin starred restaurant with a set menu for $125 plus extra for the wine pairing. Came here for dinner with my dad on a Wednesday evening and made a reservation online in advance. There were metered street parking available close to the restaurant, which looks a bit nondescript from the outside but is located close to Bar Ama. They give us extra plates and they were all so delicious. By the end of the meal, we were both so full it hurt (but it hurt so good). Below is what we had for our meal (though note that your dishes may change depending on season and availability): - Chawanmushi - super soft and savory; a nice start. - Kanpachi crudo with iced plant and citrus purée and pluots - really interesting flavor and it was the first time I had an iced plant - Squash blossom stuffed with ricotta and black sturgeon caviar with hazelnut and pink lady apple and Parmesan salad - nicely crisped texture and a fresh salad - Angolotti wirh two types of tomatoes and Sicilian cheese and Tartufo - one of my favorite of the dishes; the tomatoes burst in my mouth and the cheese was so creamy - Matai snapper in broth - my least favorite dish but my dad did enjoy its warm, savory soup - Soft shell with aioli - both of us had this as part of our top 3 dishes, and it was an extra dish that wasn’t part of the standard set - Wild sturgeon with huckleberries and Japanese squid ink - the final savory dish and it was a nice way to end - Cornbread pancake with cotton candy grapes - another first for me, as I never had grapes in cornbread but somehow it worked - Peach with marscapone and miso glaze: I wasn’t expecting this for dessert but it was homey and had a nice graham texture - Chocolate macaroon - a nice little bite to round out the meal with high quality chocolate

I had an absolutely amazing dinner here last night for my SO’s birthday. The food was just amazing along with the ambiance and dessert. We got to sit at the chef’s counter so it was nice seeing everything happen in action. They gave more dishes than they listed out and I was stuffed! This might be my new favorite restaurant right now! Just loved it. I’m going to be dreaming about the seafood porridge along with all the other deliciousness.

I went there with my girlfriend to celebrate her birthday. Orsa & Winston is a fabulous restaurant with a reasonable price, given it is a Michelin-starred restaurant in 2021 and 2019. The menu is fixed, which means you don't need to think about what to order. We even got a few extra treats that day. I enjoyed the Satsuki rice porridge the most. I can't imagine how the cream and trout roe would be harmonized to a magical extent. In addition to top-notch food, I also enjoyed the cute atmosphere and good service there. Flawless fine dining experience.

Fantastic dining experience and the food was amazing! We made the reservation a month in advance on OpenTable. I recommend ride share to the restaurant since parking is limited and the surrounding area is not the best. Service is top notch and pacing was one of the best I've experienced. They tailor the pace to each table's progress. There were 6 other parties dining at the same time and we finished first since we didn't add the optional course or wine pairing. While the menu talked about 5 courses, we were pleasantly surprised to receive any gifts throughout the meal. Everything was tasty and well executed with a variety of textures, tastes and presentation. Highly recommend!

Fine dining but confused and messy composition - Ambiance - Modern Japanese jazz / pop - a bit of a strange choice that didn’t seem to have much cohesiveness with the food Small restaurant sitting - of about 15-18 people but comfortably spaced out. Decor is clean modern albeit a bit basic in taste. Sometimes simplicity work in its favor with taste, but this was an average modern clean open kitchen design Service is good and polite - but nothing out of the ordinary or remarkable. - Food - Prefixed menu of “5 courses” with an option to add one more. But really almost a menu of 10 items (many of which not shown) The menu design was just overall feels random. One example was a sweet potatoe ravioli, duck stew and truffles in a tomato Italian-Indian sauce. The truffles felt completely misplaced that neither went with the ravioli nor the duck nor the sauce. The overall execution of the dishes were modern fine dining cuisine done well, but again was confused and difficult to connect the dots between dish to dish. It’s almost as if you ordered à la crate - except you have no choices. Lastly but unfortunately not controlled, we had a very rude set of customer next to our table. Who constantly coughed and had no conscious morale to not affect people around. It was uncomfortable to sit through the meal as a result.

Good fine dining experience. Place is very limited in capacity so make sure you reserve ahead of time. Parking is a pain but it's worth it. Every dish was great. I am a fan of Japanese and Italian food. I don't usually like fusion restaurants but this place nailed it. My favorite dish was the supplemental course. The menu said it had uni but it did not. Still not complaining, it was delicious. Reminded me of a risotto but with scallops and roe. Service was also great. Really enjoyed the drink recommendations although there aren't cocktails. Everything pairs better with wine or sake anyways.

Fantastic place to get dinner. 10/10 for ambiance. 10/10 for food. 10/10 for service. It was definitely a treat. Didn’t really know what was going to be served until you arrived and sat down. The dishes were all unique and flavorful. Don’t want to spoil too much but would go back for sure.

This place gracefully combines Asian and Italian cuisine while still keeping the essence of both. The wine pairing perfectly complemented the tasting menu. One of the best dining experiences I ever had.

Had a wonderful meal, the place is quiet, calm and very intimate. The food was amazing, the staff was helpful, knowledgeable and super nice. We had a tomato allergy and everything was prepared to perfection and they were in the know before we even got there based on a note in the reservation.

Was blown away by this restaurant. My favourite dish was the uni risotto and my least favourite dish was the bay scallops. Food was amazing and so was the service. So glad we tried this place out.

O&W. Just wow. The 6 course meal ended up being 10 courses courtesy of the chef. Delicious until the end. Reservation only so be sure to get on the list!

5 course tasting menu that came with many extra “gifts” we they just re-opened. The gifts ensured we were full - food was very tasty with interesting flavours, service was attentive and knowledgeable, and the atmosphere was sophisticated.
