Quietly elegant, heavily mirrored and bouqueted, and playing mostly to a society crowd, this spot is among the city's most lauded seafood restaurants -- and among the most expensive. The kitchen, known for using exquisite ingredients, assembles beautiful preparations that are seriously fancy but not too fussy: tuna tartare with Moroccan spices, Hawaiian walu with steamed potatoes, Atlantic cod with polenta. Lunch is à la carte, but dinner is a $68 three-course prix-fixe affair with plenty of choice in each category. Lottery winners can opt for the seven-course tasting menu for about $30 more. Service is as smooth as silk, desserts are showy, and the wine list is as high-class as the clientele.
