While the food was good, it was not FANTASTIC, leaving me wishing for slight differences in each course. The open kitchen is cool and definitely a bonus, as I love watching chefs in action. However, while Joel Robuchon ranks number 1 in my mind in terms of French dining experiences, L'Atelier doesn't even break top 5."^^ . .
