Fodor's Review:

Modern elegance is the idea in this taupe-and-beige dining room filled with mid-century modern chairs, oversize floral arrangements, and a grand crystal chandelier. The food on the changing menu is updated French—think lobster with a ginger-carrot jus, lamb chops with tomato confit and olive sauce, and Dover sole with zucchini flowers. Besides the à la carte menu, there are fixed-price menus, $120 for six courses, $150 for nine courses. The bar menu with entrées in the $24 to $27 range is a more budget-friendly option. Wines are mostly French and expensive, but the creative sommelier just might find you a deal. Jacket preferred.
