Executive Chef Daniel Humm (also of NoMad) earned top honors as our 2013 Chef of the Year, in part due to the reinvented tasting menu here—a hymn for Gotham’s dining history. Leia mais.
My last meal on earth & worth every penny & 4-5 hrs of my time - divine in every way: food, plating, creativity, service, ambiance, & overall dining experience - the best I've ever had!
One of the best brunch & fried oysters dish ever: Scrambled eggs & fried oysters! ;9 Crab toast isn't too shabby either.
Had the best rustic American flavors & fresh autumnal ingredients @ this Jean Georges-Dan Kluger restaurant. Their seasonal homemade concord grape soda is de-lish! :9
Japanese fusion speak-easy w/ minimalist living room decor, skylight, & low chairs that squeak on polished, concrete floor in former home of Warhol & Basquiat's.
Price point great 4 creative fare & portions. Star was Foie gras soba but w/ Svc & all else (uni croquette, veggie fondue, assorted sashimi rice "teacup," dbl smoked bacon, & burger), 9.2 fell short.
Fantastic, creative fare similar but a bit heartier than ABC Kitchen's: (Must-have) Crab Toast, Duck Breast, Chocolate Strawberry Brownie, & refreshing "To Pretty!" Reserve & be back in a heartbeat!
The chef here is known for his tarte flambees, which is pretty much an Alsatian pizza. The by-the-glass gewurztraminer is a must try as well
for a 4-course fixed price dinner of this caliber, GK delivers on every level (especially price, which is less than what you'd think for a meal this memorable and luxurious. [>$98/pp])
Really nice tasting menu for a special lunch: two courses for $30, three for $35. Impeccable service and beautiful food highlighting seasonal produce.
Chef Shaun Hergatt offers a 4, 6, or 10 course tasting at Juni, which includes items like the Hudson Valley foie gras and Black Bass with truffle sabayon.
Words cannot describe how much I love this place! The ambiance is great and the food is delicious. Also, they serve a lunch menu (two courses) for just 29 bucks, so spend the extra $ on their drinks!
Wasn't blown away by chicken. But the seafood tower is super creative. Tagliatelle w crab & egg w quinoa and asparagus are exceptional. Finish up w my all-time fave dessert: Milk & Honey.
Get the chicken stuffed with foie gras and truffles. You'll thank me later. And the Milk and Honey dessert. You're welcome. Again.
Refined, creative Japanese in a zen setting. 1 of my top NYC picks: homemade shiso plum sake+ amazing combo of fresh crustaceans: Uni, lobster, abalone, scallop! Divine esp for uni & raw fish lovers!
A elegant place to have lunch and to “see and be seen.” Definitely go with the Truffle Pizza and the Croque M. Or you can go wrong with the Chilled Seafood Platter.
I'm very hesitant about ordering eggs Benedict, because my family's homemade hollandaise sauce recipe is always better than anything I've tried at a restaurant. Except for this place. Sauce was A+.
Great brunch. The black truffle pizza with fontina cheese is delicious, though a bit salty, and VERY rich. Share with someone else for sure.
Skip Nougatine next door & spend the extra $6! 2-dish lunch PF w/ comp 3-taste amuse bouche & 6-pcs of homemade petit 4's: chocolates,macaron,fruit gelée,& nut brittle. Uni & sea bass were my faves.;9
The two crucial orders: The bacon kulcha, a soft, ghee-brushed bread stuffed with smoked pork belly, and the makhan malai dessert, a cloud-like puff of milk foam laced with saffron and rose petals. Leia mais.
DAILY Hh:)!! 5-7PM: $8 cocktails. $6 wine, $4 beer. $5 rolls, cocas, dumplings, churros. 1 of the best pan-latin fares & :) hrs in midtown!
Dishes to try include falafel tacos with hummus, Hokkaido sea urchin on toast, pastrami tacos with mustard seed salsa, and tempura fish with lime mayo. There’s guacamole and the seven salsas, too. Leia mais.
As a connoisseur of Tex Mex, I approve for comfort Mexican food. It’s sacrilegious to not start with guac and seven dips. Pastrami tacos and short rib make your own tacos are🔥. Layer on a few margs!
Empellon's high end offering is not for those on a budget. Sea bream was great. Downtowners will recognize familiar guac, salsa spread and some of the taco offerings
Best bang 4 $? Get $38 3-course Lunch PF or, better, $48 3-course (w/ better opts) Pre-Theater PF (M-F 5-6pm; Sat 11:45am-3pm/5-6pm) OR Sun PF 11:45am-3pm/5-clsg). Simply order xtra craves á la carte!
amazing oysters, One of the freshest and flavoured we had. Grilled octopus is by far the best appetizer. Crab cakes are tender and of superb quality.
Greek nouveau seafood-centric options in a lovely setting. Go for 3-Course $39 Lunch PF; $49 Wkend Theater Menu (Fri & Sat 5–6pm/9-10:30pm); OR $79 4-course dinner. And pay attention to the specials!
Mike the bartender and Jackie the Manager were very accommodating . The beet salad and the foie gras , tile fish, lobster were over the top
Creative fare frm Chef Brady of NYC's Bouley & David Burke kitchens. Only complaint: tight booths indoors. Be sure to request 4 tbl in advance or head out to posh Patio- w/ H2Ofalls & NE coastal fare
Hands down best fine-dining in area! Loved Halibut ceviche, Ricotta Gnocchi alla Bolognese, Fried Oysters w/ Foie Gras Aioli & homemade chocolate w/ sea salt + caramel.
$1.99 Sangria for checking into 4sq. Also, ask the hostess if there's a Iron Chef menu: 5 tapas tasting for $35!! It's not always offered.
More for creative sushi lovers but not for the sushi purists. Omakase only: choices of either $85 for 12-course pp or $125 for 15-course pp
Missed #nationaltruffleday @ishikawanyc @donpham2569 + Chef Pham’s creative bites of pure omakase heaven & delish house-made yuzu sake..worth every last ¢! #ues #nyc #sushi #sake #truffle #caviar #uni
