Always a fun time at CH great food & service fun server Clarissa

Beautiful restaurant and overall great though it had a few hiccups. Hopefully parking isn’t always difficult, but we circled the lot trying to find a spot. Our server ignored us for about 15 minutes and a drink order took 30 minutes. We were told they had just received truffles from France, and they were being offered at $20 for each item on which we wanted them. We ordered $60 worth. They were absolutely flavorless. Very disappointing. We told our server who discussed it with the chef. The chef said they wouldn’t develop flavor for about a month. Why, then, were they offering them? They should have been deducted from our bill. Other than that and the service missteps (we weren’t asked how we wanted our meat cooked -we had to tell him, silverware missing), the food was excellent -steak and prime rib perfectly cooked and and we both loved the spinach and butterscotch pudding. I ordered a Grasshopper -hadn’t had one in many years - skip it- unimaginative and definitely not worth the calories. In fairness, our visit was during the Christmas holidays, but for a restaurant of this caliber, it should have been nearly perfect.

We were thoroughly blown away by this establishment from the moment we walked out of the elevator to the moment we had finished and walked back into it. This place is one of the best restaurants we have ever eaten in and we've been to hundreds of restaurants all over the world! We kept hearing about the view but it was a deep fog on the night that we were there and so we never saw the view that everyone is always raving about and we were still stupefied with the quality of everything we saw, experienced, ate or touched. It is a small plate restaurant (of tapas lineage) and the way they mix and match is nothing short of astounding. There were four of us and we ordered two apiece with the intention of ordering more as we devoured them on arrival. The plates did not seem all that huge, but four of us could not finish all the food on eight plates. We had extra but through no lack of our own super abilities to eat boatloads of food and we ordered: truffled fries, pan seared salmon, charred cauliflower, smashed brussel sprouts, bruschetta (brie and fig, smoked salmon, fresh mozzarella, and tomatillo and avocado), spinach & cheese tortellini, crispy lobster, and one more that I can't, for the life of me, remember. Believe me that they were all memorable, it's my leaky brain that can't retain anything anymore. Even though we were maxed out on available stomach-space we went ahead and ordered the flan for dessert, which has a brownie underneath it, and it was the highest level of delectability that any of us had ever experienced. I got the Mocktail Raspberry Pineapple Mule which was stupendous. Back when I was drinking I would have ordered five of these during a meal but this one was quite enough for the night. We ended up with about a sixty-dollar cost per-person which is substantially less than I thought it would be but I have to say that the quality of food and service was worth double of what we paid.

Great place for Christmas. Loove the ambience...fits perfectly for Christmas. Our server Maya was Excellent! Great restaurant. And will be back
