The Michelin Guide's review
At the base of the Grace building on the edge of Bryant Park, this cavernous restaurant is dressed in luxury from top to bottom. A large bar welcomes a boisterous after-work crowd, while the spacious dining room is a work of cream-colored banquettes, fine art and sparkling cutlery. Alsatian-born Chef Gabriel Kreuther cooks with a global sensibility rooted in excellent French technique. Warm kugelhopf with chive fromage blanc as well as the smoked sturgeon and sauerkraut tart are indulgent, gratifying classics, while bass with wax bean ragout and mussels celebrates the seasons. An old-school cheese trolley, an armada of finely suited servers and an impressive collection of Alsatian wines rounds out a night.
