Came tonight for the soft opening. It was amazing to say the least. The staff was beyond wonderful and the foot made every bite like a small piece of heaven. Each cocktail is beautifully crafted to give a unique yet familiar experience. I think the cocktail "Note from Gordon" was one of my favorites. It was a big drink, and it comes with a little note in the garnish that made me laugh.
On to the layout. The room still has the feel of Serendipity when it was there, but it was nicely updated to give the feel that you're in the show. The kitchen is divided into the red and blue team, but instead of fighting each other, they work to create a perfect experience.
Try the scallops appetizer. I would have never thought apples with scallops but dang it's delicious! I could eat so many of those and make that a full meal.
The lobster risotto comes with a whole butter poached lobster tail and is cooked to perfection. It's not a huge portion by any means, but it's still a great entree size.
The New York is great but I feel it was missing something that set it over the edge. Maybe a little more sauce or some extra of the mushrooms/peppers that come on top. One way or another, it was still better than a lot of steaks I've had in this city.
Sides... get the Mac and cheese, and the cauliflower. I don't care if you typically don't like those items... these ones are life changing. I finished both of those off before I even touched anything else.
Overall, it's quite the experience and very delicious! One of the best points right now is the price is relatively cheap. Still expensive, but way cheaper than what I was expecting. I'm sure it will increase in price, so go now before it goes up!
