Restaurants near Orizaba Park

The food was outstandingly fresh, high quality, and creatively prepared and served. The price fixe menu of many courses seemed to climb a bell curve, with the least interesting being the shrimp chip and dip starter ‘snack’ , climbing to a magnificent crescendo with the the scallop and mussel small plate, and an equally exquisite plate of the freshest sliced kampachi. Each plate was beautiful, graced with curated vegetables, flowers, and delicate sauces that completed, never overpowered. Our only complaint: we found the dessert disappointing in flavor, appearance and texture: a choux pastry ball with a heavy dull filling, sitting on top of a scatter of what resembled stale cocoa puff cereal pieces. I would have traded it for the rich creamy mascapone ice cream served earlier, sans the caviar topping. The service was outstanding: gracious, helpful, attentive, knowledgeable and well orchestrated. Overall we had a fabulous dining experience, exceeding our highest expectations. In most every way, including price, dining here is a special occasion; we could not understand how or why most diners we observed were wearing gym clothes, T-shirts and jeans, sneakers, fuzzy slippers. What’s next: dining in our underwear? How about a dress code?!

Three of us had the Hangar Steak. Tender and great flavor. One had the Cod and he loved it , Our waiter was the best. Great night. Started off at the 1st floor lounge before dinner and then a night cap on the rooftop afterwards.

My second time here. I particularly love this place because I can get foul here! I don’t live any where near the restaurant, but I have been waiting patiently to come here again. I enjoyed it even more the second time! I highly recommend this place. So good!

The Filet Mignon Cobb Salad - the ingredients are super fresh & the dressing should be golden champagne and not blue cheese. It’s such a wonderful lunch. This salad is a must and should be as famous as the Waldorf. Joe at the bar, makes any day super sunny 😎and his Old Fashioned is all smiles.

So cute with all the holiday decorations! At first we were seated outside in the drizzle but they moved us to an apartment door table which was so much warmer. Great service & tasty food. The drinks were strong & delicious with cute rubber ducks, a plastic reindeer, umbrellas…..the works. We loved the experience:)
