"Viognier is fine French dining in San Mateo! My date and I came to celebrate Valentine's Day and it was a lovely experience. It was a 5 course prefix menu for Vday and overall, it was a very enjoyable menu. 1) Truffle ice cream with caviar (Amuse Bouche) I've never had anything like this before The bite was salty and sweet, which made for the perfect bite. 2) Appetizer: Baby abalone with poached egg this was my favorite thing on the menu! The poached egg was perfectly cooked and seasoned. When it's eaten with the abalone, it has a great burst of flavor. 3) Second course: Warm lobster salad the poached lobster was absolutely lovely and tasted fresh, but the smoked chard tasted burnt in my opinion. 4) Third course: Braised lamb ragu the lamb was super tender and the house made pappardelle was on point. However, the sauce was a load too salty for my taste. 5) Intermezzo: Black cherry sorbet very refreshing and perfect pallet cleanser before the next course. 6) Fourth course: Hokkaido A5 wagyu the wagyu was amazing! It's fatty but melts in your mouth! I haven't had good wagyu since Japan. This is was pretty comparable. However, I can't say much for the truffled potatoes (gratin) it didn't add much to the wagyu. I would have been happier with wagyu on its own. 7) Dessert: Amour we had a predessert chocolate before our final dessert. The predessert with passion fruit filling was absolutely delightful. As for the main dessert, I loved the layers. The cake with the heart shaped cream and the lychee jelly and grapefruit was quite flavorful and not too sweet! It was perfect! My only critique is the cookie on the base. I couldn't eat the cookie with the other parts of the dessert because it was rock hard! I had to eat it separately, which isn't my preference. Otherwise, I enjoyed the dessert. I enjoyed the meal overall, but I would love to come back to try the prefix menu on another night!"
