From the Restaurant
The latest culinary fusion is taking place between two personalities: Award-winning Executive Chef David Burke, whose reputation for wildly creative takes on American ingredients is unsurpassed, has teamed up with savvy young restaurateur Donatella Arpaia. The result is David Burke and Donatella, serving provocative Modern American Cuisine in an elegantly refurbished Upper East Side space. The restaurant's design is inspired by the bold colors and lacquered surfaces on the 1930's, yet it has decidedly contemporary aesthetic. Upon entering David Burke & Donatella, guests will feel the glamour and sense of fun in the lounge with its sleek white gloss, stone bar and whimsical art installations. The volume of color and drama is turned up for the main event, the dining room, where a striking color palette of chocolate, vanilla and lipstick colors prevails.

Very “Upper East Side.” Wear preppy clothes and a blazer. No sneakers. Excellent, inventive, beautifully presented American menu. Great deal at $24 for 3 courses during weekly lunch. Dinner comes to approx 70/person. Get the cheesecake lollipop tree for dessert, it made David Burke a household name in New York City. Excellent pretzel crabcake, wonderfully tender Veal. Burger surprisingly stunning. Hostess can be a bit annoying, but don’t let that put you off.

Very trendy restaurant, with refreshingly well deserved accolades for food and service. Not great for a quick bite, rather it is enjoyable over a more lingering evening. I had the Dover Sole with Butternut Squash Gnocchi and Tomato Noisette.
