From the OpenTable editors: Joël Robuchon disciple Alain Verzeroli came into his own at this bright and plant-filled Midtown restaurant that reflects the seasonal, produce-forward menu. Dishes like halibut with morels and a white asparagus veloute manage to be both unfussy but still destination-worthy, as proven by its MICHELIN Star.

    Amazing experience! The food was fabulous. Incredible presentation and delicious. This was truly a special event, from the moment you walked in every detail was superb. The flowers, the card, the menu, nothing was forgotten. The entire staff was so attentive! I don’t know how I’ve missed going to this restaurant but I guarantee we will return.

    From the time we sat down until we left we had an incredible experience. A beautiful bottle of old vintage wine was chosen with expert help from Christopher our sommelier. Our meal was served by Griffin who orchestrated every course perfectly. The food was artistically presented and was a superb blend of flavors to please the palate. Since it was my birthday, a special dessert was presented with a candle and good wishes. To say we had a wonderful time is an understatement.

    The food was delicious, the service was great, and the ambience was delightful. However, although I am accustomed to small portions and high prices at Michelin starred restaurants, it was still a shock to pay $42.00 for two spears of white asparagus. Granted, it was delicious, creative, and beautifully presented, but still! I will return, but I will brace myself for more sticker shock.

    This was my third visit in recent months. I think the food, service and ambiance were great. Price, a little high but nowadays all restaurants are the same. The only thing I couldn’t understand was the size and the design of the printed menu. It is confusing. They better redesign it and make it more user friendly.
