I wholeheartedly agree with Patrick. I left that restaurant hungry too. And it didn't come cheap. Ridiculously small portions. Some restaurants serve on huge plates, which makes a portion seem smaller than it is, and I am very conscious of that. This restaurant,however, is absolutely insulting with their stinginess. Take the 18 year olds to Virgils - 3 blocks away on W. 44th and let them chow down on barbeque ribs. Casual and fun.

I have to disagree... we went to Blue Fin for Sunday brunch recently. I had the lobster benedict and couldn't finish it. Didn't even touch the egg part (figured I could eat eggs anytime), and was very full. My husband got the caramelized apple & walnut waffles. He finished all of it, but left full and he is a big guy.
Our plates were $15 & $11 respectively and coctails, coffee, tea were free. I was very surprised after reviews.

mommy, that's a little disingenuous, isn't it? Brunch is an especially high-margin weekend meal for high-end restaurants: Costly ingredients are used in small quantities, and the cheap stuff like eggs, pancake mix, hollandaise sauce, english muffins etc. are loaded up. I dare say you'd find much smaller portions at dinner.

You will definitely have to take an 18-yr out to Mickey D's afterward as the
dinner portions are miniscule.
If you want to take him to the village,
www.marysfishcamp.com will satisfy.
