I managed to get a table at top chef harold’s restaurant after my friend made the reservation the night before. I got to sit at one of the cool orange booths and had most perfectly cooked steak and awesome cuttlefish. for dessert, get the murrary’s cheese plate. The blue/brie cheese was better than both of the other desserts I had. I’ve never had cheese plates but after tonight I’ll be ordering them more often.
Had a 5:30 table and saw harold several times during the beginning of my dinner; he sort of disappeared into the kitchen once it got busy after being there for about a half hour. looks exactly the same as he was on tv.
I will def go back and hopefully they’ll the tasting menu.

Disappointing. The chef’s tasting menu with the wine pairing had more misses then hits. There were too many watered down sauces. Service was also off at times and the atmosphere seemed more pretentious then inviting. Overall ok food, but not what I expected from a 3 star Michelin restaurant. Go to per se instead.

I’ve gone twice within the last 2-3 weeks; once for dinner and once for lunch. No repeats except for the shaved frozen foie gras with lychee, pine nut brittle, and riesling jelly, which happens to be the best single dish I’ve ever tasted. Dinner was roughly 10 courses while lunch had 17 and lasted 3 hours. Other standouts include the egg dishes, the sea urchin, and the risotto. Def prefer dinner since lunch was too much food, everything was very good. If I ever go for lunch again, I’m not eating for like 2 days.
