"Wonderful high end dining experience in the Seaport neighborhood ! We came for my wife's birthday, and the staff were very detail oriented printing a happy birthday message on the menu, and wishing her as we walked in. All this was in addition toaccounting for our dietary restrictions. Our waiter was also extremely attentive, friendly, and willing to answer questionsabout the wines and food items that came along. We ended up doing the chef's tasting menu wine pairing to get a full pictureof Menton's cullinary depth. While some of the dishes were not excellent, the entire experience was memorable. Keep in mind thatthis menu changes everyday. The bread pairings were intermittent, but a good way to just clear one's taste buds for the coursesthat came afterward. 1. Meringue light and good start to the meal. 2. Surf Clam Also light and had a tinge of bitterness;went well with the pairing 3. Smoked Mussel Easily the best pairing of the night, and very creatively presented. 4. Foie GrasTorchon Was not the best we have had. The biscuits that accompanied were more highlighted in taste, which says something aboutthe foie gras. Good wine pairing. 5. Stuffed Pappardelle Well presented, but I felt it was slightly oily. Good wine pairing 6.Squid Crudo was presented well here and tasted good. Wine pairing was a bit odd (did not have a great aftertaste) but the dishmade up for it. 7. Lobster Excellent presentation and taste. Went very well with the wine pairing. The sauce was so wellbalanced to make it still seem it was a light dish in the middle of a chef's tasting. 8. Lamb Heavier in the context of themeal, but worth the wait. Wine pairing was the second best out of the entire meal, providing depth with the dish. 9. Dessert Sorbet was first, which was excellent. The grapefruit was something I did not expect to go that well, but it was very richwithout being heavy. The Nougat, which came afterwards, was also fresh, and paired well with the ice"
