In Short
Culinary trappings from Spain, Italy, and the Mediterranean are the specialties--served to a constant parade of urbanites, pinstriped power brokers and committed foodies. The strikingly appointed dining room is outfitted with a copper-topped bar, a sleek chef's counter and hand-blown glass fixtures. Main courses include artichoke tortelloni with a creamy goat cheese and artichoke mousse, and a bone-in Angus rib-eye plated with goat cheese polenta.
