Traveler's Table is one I'd been wanting to go to for a while, and 2 of my closest friends and I made the time to go for an early birthday dinner. It is safe to say that I will be returning because there is so much that I want to try.
The lowest part for all of us was the margarita flight. I'm not a big tequila person - I'm also not the one who ordered the flight. However, I did like the creativity of the drinks. I just would have chosen something different.
We did split everything we got. For appetizers, we had pão de queijo, snapper ceviche, and pani puri. I'm a sucker for pão de queijo, and recently discovered pani puri. These didn't miss. Thr snapper civiche was light and refreshing.
For our entrees, we got the yellow crab curry and pistachio-crusted rack of lamb. I always feel guilty getting soft shell crab just because it maintains it shape, but it was delicious. The rack of lamb was also incredible and definitely worth having. However the entrée section is where we struggled on not picking way more than we needed.
For dessert, we ordered the black sesame lava cake that had ube ice cream and yuzu whipped cream. We also got 3 scoops of ice cream - vanilla, coconut, and ube - as a birthday treat. The lava cake was incredibly rich the but the ube and yuzu balanced it well. All three ice creams were delicious but the coconut ended up being my favorite.
Our server (whose name I forgot; I'm sorry!) was incredible. One of our party members has gluten issues and he did a fabulous job of checking what was or was not able to be gluten friendly for her. It was beyond appreciated. The atmosphere was honestly...amazing? Even pretty full, it didn't feel overwhelmingly loud, which I was thankful for.
So definitely will be going back to try several things.
