Rooted in classic French technique, Verzeroli has created a menu where seasonality a prominent role: local, seasonal fruits and vegetables, fresh herbs, and greens are complemented by sustainable proteins. The wine list features over 350 references, and has an international focus drawing heavily on the French regions of Champagne, Burgundy, and Bordeaux. Cocktails utilize high quality craft spirits, fortified wines, fresh herbs, and house made tinctures and bitters.

From the OpenTable editors: Joël Robuchon disciple Alain Verzeroli came into his own at this bright and plant-filled Midtown restaurant that reflects the seasonal, produce-forward menu. Dishes like halibut with morels and a white asparagus veloute manage to be both unfussy but still destination-worthy, as proven by its MICHELIN Star.

Everything about this restaurant was impeccable, even for a single person going to celebrate their birthday. The staff was so hospitable, friendly and efficient. The food was by far the *BEST* I’ve ever had. I did do the five course tasting menu & they were nice enough to accommodate subs for the seafood items for me(seafood does not agree with me). The prices were very reasonably priced for a Michelin starred restaurant, I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone that wants experience fine dining at its absolute finest.
