HI,
Given the time one waits to get their reservation, then to take the $50+ 3 course over the $90+ 9 course, seems like wasted effort. Plus you get the stuff they are known for like the quail egg ravioli, when you get the 9-course.
When I was there over the summer, there was a table of 5 women who had the 3-course. Everyone else had the nine course meal.
Of course you have to decide what is comfortable for you.
Regards,
