David Burke & Donatella Whimsical but Great Food
Pros: Environment, service, food, quality
Cons: You may have to wait for a table, even with reservations. Just have a drink at the bar.
A well designed space, with a bar area and seating on the entrance level and more formal dining a few step down, the food here is imaginative, well presented and delicious. When I say imaginative and well presented I mean it - you will be dazzled and entertained by the composition of the plates served. I think my favorite was the Ostrich Egg, with scrambled ostrich egg, caviar and crème fraiche, among other things. Being a lover of caviar I always thought I could eat it forever, but the amount of caviar served in this dish was even too much for me!, which left me to examine the enormous ostrich egg in front of me. You can expect the same whimsy with all of the exceptionally prepared dishes you will find here on the menu. And the desserts - you'll just have to see for yourself. I am not a big fan of desserts, not having much of a sweet tooth, but I couldn't keep from sampling a little of everything! Oh, one more thing (for smokers) - in the winter they have a limousine out front so that you can go outside for a cigarette and not have to stand in the freezing cold!
