We went for The Feast of Seven Fishes (only counted 6). Started with cocktails, but the 1st course came ahead of them, so we waited. Both (different) cocktails were mostly nugget ice and heavily citrused. Won’t order cocktails again. Small plates were decent, but confidently small. The lobster tortellini plate made up for the total meal and was generous. Basque cheesecake is an interesting less-sweet option but I wouldn’t opt for it.

Fantastic experience. I had heard how good this restaurant was and it did not disappoint. The bar and restaurant are beautifully designed. The food was outstanding. We had the pork belly and wedge salad as appetizers, scallops and filets with fingerlings and Brussel sprouts for main course, and cream brûlée and caramelized apples with vanilla ice cream for dessert. Every bite was delicious. Will dine here again. Highly recommend.
