Le Cirque or David Burke Townhouse?

[bartholomeu]

I am looking to try either one of these for a Restaurant Week dinner. I was hoping to get some feedback or suggestions about which one to try out? Perhaps, even a recommendation on which dishes to try out would also be appreciated. Thank you!

Here are the links for the menus:

I had a very good RW dinner at Le Cirque in the winter. If you go, I highly recommend their creme brulee since it's the "gold standard". The menu for the summer is completely different than their dinner menu with the exception of the creme brulee.

Thank you for the response! I actually had seen your recommendation of their creme brulee before when going through some other chowhound posts--I always appreciate a good creme brulee. :-)
