This place is crazy. Like Lewis Carroll’s crack den, the restaurant features a pink-hued checkboard dining room with a balcony, a zebra room, and a “jewel-box-like supper club”. O…k… So, we hit it on the last night of Restaurant Week. We started off with drinks, including Kir (brilliant), and my 888 Vodka martini. The waiter originally thought I was pointing to a shot of 888 on the menu (??).

For apps, we evenly split the salmon and gazpacho. Each were pretty gratifying. I got the halibut for dinner, if for nothing else, to get to say the word “succotash”. And, even though it took me about 50% longer than everyone else, I cleaned my plate, despite the waiter’s attempt to steal it from me. He also tried to convince us that the chocolate panna cotta was better than the peach tart tatin, but the first two orders immediately rejected his suggestion for the peach. Both desserts were downright ambrosial.

It’s an ethereal, snooty place with weird-shaped tables and bizarre decor, but definitely worth a visit for both the experience and menu alike.
