Typical beach food so it's reliable and all. I had ok fish tacos and a nice salad. Nice location on the beach, very kid friendly...everything you expect for a family joint on the water.

Decidedly mediocre. The room was clean and reasonably priced. And it's all suites, which is nice cause you can put the kids to bed in one room and watch a movie or hang in the other. But it took them 6 hours to get me a crib, and the next day our room wasn't serviced until 5pm. Back on the plus side they have turtles and fish for little kids to look at. Not much of a pool or gym but a convenient location.

Jean-Georges is good at what he does. First time last night for my wife's anniversary and I recommend it. You really should try for the $24 3 course lunch prix fix. The food was original and tasty, the service outstanding, and the room modern and delightful, though a little dark. I had mozerella with pomegranite, yuzu, and grapefruit followed by arctic char with hen of the wood mushrooms and a roasted japanese pepper. My wife had peeky toe crab roll wrapped in a dumpling skin and fried with apples, and yuzu and green chili risotto with mushrooms. Yum.

We've all read the superlatives. They are all true. Forget the food - it's the people that make this place special. Outstanding, invisible, personalized service. Worth every penny. And, oh yeah, the food is outstanding. I've been there six times now and the last visit was the best. The meal included their famous oysters and pearls, glazed carot soup, stone crab claws, hamachi shashimi, truffled egg custard, roast lobe of fois gras, truffled pasta, truffled risotto, roasted game bird (can't recall which), wagyu beef, grass fed Idaho rib eye, goat cheese and lentils, various citrus sorbets, desert, petite four, chocolate, and, oh yes! 9 different wines. :)

Same owners as Blue Ribbon Sushi. This place may be a little tired now but it was a late night hangout for chefs for a reason. Great oysters. Terrific marrow bones. Some of the past appetizers I've ever had. I still love to go for a more affordable gastronomic experience.

Don't walk, run for the best sushi in the city. Don't open the menu. Just say OMAKASE and let the chef choose for you. Best $75 bucks you'll ever spend on sushi.

The best burger. Period. Ten bucks = beer, fries and a bacon cheeseburger. Did you know they fry the bacon with the fries making everything very delicious? The lines are brutal. Go early or go late, but go often.
