With the departure of Mark Gold, I think the restaurant is trying to find itself. The menu in brief: Amuse Bouche: Eastern Malpeque Oyster, Daikon Mignonette, Shiso 1: Black Sablefish, Sweet Soy, Blue Oyster Mushrooms, Bok Choy, Scallions, Ginger Meibo Yowano Tsuki Sake Junmai Ginjo 2: Alaskan Halibut, Piquillo Pepper, Spanish Chorizo, Venus Clams Bolgheri, Campo Alla Casa, Enrico Santini, 2004 Intermezzo: "PB&J", Kyoho Grape Sorbet, Tahini, Toasted Brioche 3: Duck, White Truffle, Sweet Corn, Port, Foie Gras, Beet Leaves Pinot Noir, Campion, Santa Lucia Highlands, 2002 4: Snake River Farms Wagyu Ribeye Cap, Fingerlings, Watercress, Au Jus Cabernet Sauvignon, Mount Veeder, Napa Valley, 2004 5: Chocolate Fondant, 60% Valhrona Chocolate Mousse, Vanilla Bean Ice Cream, Raspberry Rozes 10 Year Old Port Basically, the restaurant needs to get out of its near constant state of flux and learn to rely less on theater diners.

How much was the tasting menu? Was the place packed? Fri Oct 05 09:09:07 -0700 2007 3006739 12882 jkao1817 2 3008314 The menu was $65 for food, which was actually quite reasonable. We arrived at 10:00pm, so there were only three other tables. I hear it gets very busy during pre-theater dining times however. Fri Oct 05 11:53:39 -0700 2007 3007612 54503 kevin h
