"NEW IN TRIBECA. This ultra fancy, European inspired lounge appeared on the map very recently and not many people are aware that it exists.Now the interior setting is very nicely designed...very chic with a modern touch. The music they chose on my visit vibes very nicely with the overall decor to create an ambiance that makes the place very casual and cool yet still can be very fancy and intimate. Cozy booth-like seating located near the bar as well as tables near the entrance and rear with comfy chairs that can accommodate large parties. Full bar area with some very talented and beautiful female bartenders (say hello to Irene) that were trained by none other than Mr Jeremy Le Blanche (who is very well known for his viral cocktails at Thyme Bar).We got the booth right in front of the bar area with extremely comfortable seats. It felt like a VIP space and could probably fit approximately 4-6 people (two on each side and two facing the bar), giving each person enough room to eat and drink. The table was nicely set and the wait staff brought over the drink and dinner menus. If you like alcohol, then you will loved this place. The wine list on it own boasts a plethora of choices for red and white as well rosé, champagne and some beers. The main cocktail list I will review based upon the drinks we ordered.Cottony was probably the fanciest designed drink we ordered. It consists of Lesin vodka, vanilla, passionfruit, saffron and lime. There is a big piece of cotton candy that adorns the top of the glass and it is accompanied with a palate cleanser.Lush had a very interesting design. It consisted of El Silencio MezcalEspadin, Mr Black Coffee and topped with a cookie to balance out the taste. The coffee flavor was quite strong with this drink.Downy was tasty. It consisted of aperitivo, Spumante Prosecco, peach and rose. This is something that you could probably sip on all night.Airy contained grey goose vodka, tomato, saya, Worcestershire, black truffle and lemon. My guest liked this drink a lot.Shiruku was unique I felt. It contained Ume plum, Pimm's, Cucumber, Lemon and London Essence ginger beer. The cucumber taste really helped to elevate this particular cocktail.Tangy was a last minute decision. The drink was very strong in my opinion as it contained cazadores blanco tequila, grand marnier, Oleo saccharum, lime and celery.The appetizers we chose were the:Lobster Roll main lobster on brioche. Very tasty and good presentation.Lobster bisque the creme sauce was tasty but it is recommended to eat this right away as it cools quicklyBread and butter sounds simple but the Vermont butter they pair with the house made bread makes this a solid appetizer.Tuna tartare elegantly plated raw tuna, spicy yuzu, ponzu cream, Granny Smith apple. This dish is good for sharingOysters we got the 12 piece set which consisted of East Coast oysters and mignonette sauce. This was my second time ever eating any raw oysters and they were all delicious with the sauce.EntreesDuck a l'Orange I was intrigued by this dish. The duck was cooked very nicely. The orange sauce and Yukon mashed potato were a nice comboFilet Migon Au Poivre This may have been the star entree of the evening! Cooked medium rare and season perfectly. I think we were all fighting to get the last piece. Highly recommended.Citrus infused Sea Bass The lemon sauce that adorned this dish was quite good and the plating for the sea bass was very nice in my opinion.Slow Cooked Pork Belly sabayon bacon and rosemary sauce really woke my taste buds. A must try.Tempura Cauliflower this one surprised me. They fried each one very nicely in batter and the roasted pepper sriracha sauce as not bad at all.Dessert consisted of Mr LeBlanche's very special Chocolate Wine to end the night.The service during my visit was very on point. Carlos stopped by when my main server was busy (forgot name)."
