Executive chef: Ryan Ratino
From the OpenTable editors: From a living moss wall and purple banquettes to playful dishes layered with truffles and caviar, maximalism reigns supreme at Ryan Ratino’s MICHELIN-Starred hotspot. His Parisian bistro-inspired menu includes whimsical takes on French classics like a strawberry-pistachio foie gras “gateau” paired with colorful cocktails from beverage director Will Patton.
