Taking the wife to dinner tonight and can't decide between them.

Which restaurant do you recommend and menu suggestions would be appreciated.

I will report back with a review from the one we choose.

I enjoyed revolution better. Thought the food was good at Lapin, but we experienced the worst service I've ever received at a fine dining establishment there. really left us with a bad impression.

R'evolution offers a more traditional menu of great dishes IMO.

Compere Lapin is good but seems like it's almost flash in the pan hip

Completely different type of places.

R'evolution is white table cloth fine dining in the vein of August. Higher priced, more fine dining service, ambience and food. It really is quite good.

Compere Lapin is certainly a bit more casual (although still high end) and the flavor profiles and cooking are wildly different than R'evolution. Caribbean influences, very nice cocktails. I like it a lot.

Just depends on what you're looking for, can't go wrong either way.

If you're looking to wear a suit and blow it out, go to R'evolution. If you want a wonderful meal and cocktail in a more relaxed environment go to Compere Lapin.

Coin flip really but as mentioned. We are the type that like to sit at the bar & be casual so Compere Lapin; tartare is fabulous. If you want the white cloth treatment then R'evolution & get the scallops!
