I went to dovetail on the Upper West Side last week. I thought the food, atmosphere and service was great. I will go back very soon. A great new place for the Upper West Side.

THanks for replies. Is Buddha Bar a good fun place?
I've been To Buddakan and Spice Market.

Does Asiate have music to dance to?

[Butterfly123]

I was thinking Asia de Cuba but there is no music to dance..so still searching..

Maybe Tao? Loud music, big decorations, okay food- more of a scene.

the "scene" at tao ended years ago, and even then it was a high cheese scene at that

I'm a sucker for Buddakan & Asiate.

i second asiate, dislike buddakhan, like Megu

[LeahBaila]

Which Megu? I've been meaning to check out the downtown location!

i love Buddakan too

love Spice Market for decor and atmosphere, but don't know how the food is these days.

Asiate.

The place is unbelievable posh. The views make you feel like Donald Trump.
The food while excellently prepared was a little less than inspired to me.
You won't get better service anywhere else; at least I never have.
