The Michelin Guide's Opinion
With oversized Champagne bottles, velvet dinner jackets, and balloons galore, Chef Aaron Silverman’s seminal restaurant returns with a whole new groove. Inspired by the Studio 54 nightclub, the mood now rings closer to a New Year’s Eve party, as guests are encouraged to dress to impress. Dinner is a noticeably condensed affair, punctuated with potent surprises like tableside absinthe cocktails and truffle-infused amaretto warmed over candlelight. Everything comes with a story, and the staff is happy to sit down to tell these tales. All the while, Silverman cooks with inspiration. Highlights include squab encrusted in cacao nibs, agnolotti buried under a white chocolate and parmesan foam, and a pineapple dessert inspired by Los Angeles taco trucks.
