One of the top two tasting experiences in the country. Chef Harrison and the entire team delivered an exceptional evening. Standout dishes included the venison with elderberry and the beautifully executed halibut. The beverage pairing was extraordinary highlighted by the Clos Rougeard, easily the best red wine I’ve ever tasted. Service was warm, personal, and thoughtful, with each chef introducing themselves throughout the meal. I truly can’t recommend this restaurant highly enough. Fully deserving of Top 50 recognition and even 3-star accolades. Huge thanks to Chef Harrison, Alexis, Chimay, Alex, Frida, David, Joe, Evan, and the whole team.

Second time eating here as i loved it the first visit and the’ve since won a second star, so i returned with high expectations. The food felt like a natural progression from my last visit, an unfussed elegant approach to cooking with a big emphasis on working with small artisans and sustainability. All of the dishes seemed to be explained by where and why they sourced the ingredients more than how exactly they cooked them. Everything i ate had a feeling of freshness and intensity of flavour, which felt quite novel to me. I sometimes find tasting menus can be overly rich and difficult to finish comfortably. Stand out dishes for me were the scollop with cured pork and turnip and the smoked duck. Although all of the food was absolutely delicious. I’m pretty sure every single person in the front of house and kitchen came and served one of the 18 courses i had. This is something i really appreciate as a solo diner because if the courses take a bit longer or if you have the same person at the table the whole evening i can feel a bit awkward or boring. They were all incredibly warm and charming and for me it kind of made the experience. To my knowledge there aren’t any other New Nordic restaurants in the area at this level, so its a must visit for anyone interested in dining in one of the west coasts new, best and exciting restaurants! Thank you to the whole team at S&D for an incredible evening 👏👏

Came here celebrating my partner’s birthday. We had the winter tasting menu. We were impressed by the theme of the food being fermented and the reason why chef celebrates this theme. And I can still remember it well after a month. If you are interested in trying out how can food be fermented, and what they taste like in a very good form, this is the place to go! There were several dishes amazing. 1 dish tastes a little like the fish came out of a can, not bad at all, I just enjoy more from fresh live fish since I grown up next to the ocean. The service was great. Though I’d recommend to go there earlier than us, I sat down at 8:30, and finished after 11. It was a little too late for me.

Food was really good and very nicely presented. We ordered their green apple juice with douglas fir and it was really good! Staff were very friendly. It was really cool when they placed our dishes in sync.

Beautiful dining area. Wonderful service. Good food. I loved the stories behind each of the dishes. It was also nice to hear about where the dishes were made. Fun drink pairings. Coffee could have been stronger.
