Showpiece chandeliers and 28-foot ceilings with pillars draped in cream suede to complement brown suede chairs make for a drop-dead gorgeous, totally redone 138-seater with a new focus and attitude. The new American cuisine encompasses Italian, French, Asian—but not on one plate. Try pastas such as gnocchi with asparagus pesto or seafood cannelloni in cognac-tomato cream sauce. Mains are a global trip: tandoori-spiced pork tenderloin, organic honey-ginger salmon, or pan-roasted veal steak with marsala sauce. Desserts and cheeses are divine. A downstairs lounge has buzz, its own small, less-expensive menu ($$), and live music weekends.
