    The classic Parmesan budino (described by Michael Bauer as the finest, most exquisite custard, surrounded by tiny greens and topped with black truffle caviar) is a must ... as is a fat wallet. Read more

    My friend and I had a really enjoyable experience. The wait staff were knowledgeable and unpretentious. We were given several small bites on the house. The food was so delicious!

    Call for an "anniversary dinner" to sit at a corner table for a view of the entire restaurant. Save room for mini dessert selection to finish your meal - fruit tart and carrot cake macaron are best!

    Try the pear ravioli stuffed with foie gras, or the sturgeon with truffle, kusshi oysters, and osetra caviar

    The 3 course menu is only $105, and there are tons of petit fours that come with the meal. Standout dishes were lobster gnocchi and risotto.

    Don't miss the pork loin wrapped in pancetta with roasted corn, potato sauce, and clam 'salsa verde.' It goes great with a bottle of 2009 Donelan 'Two Brothers' Pinot Noir.

    The place is top notch, however I feel La Folie is better in the same price range
