How good was the food?

God I wish. Not the same thing but I did go to his bar the Aviary which is well worth going to as a consolation prize. They have a few food items available. The only thing I can vouch for on that front is the "truffle explosion." It lived up to the name. Probably the richest thing Ive ever tasted.

Gonna get slammed for this but I wanna know about the taste of the food only. The rest of the experience seems really awesome. I've never experienced anything like that and I probably never will. I just wanna know how was the food. Curious
Im sure "how good was the food" is too simple. Dumb it down for me. Tia

Strictly speaking from a food perspective, yes, best meal I've ever had. Some others have come close, but nope, it's still my all-time favorite.
When I went a long time ago, I think I had like 16 different things come to the table (ranging from tiny to fairly substantial), and 14 were great. Three or four of those were unforgettably superb, and one was the best bite of food I've ever had (Black Truffle Explosion).
You thinking about trying it?

I'm going in 2 weeks so I'll report back. So far my best meal award goes to Eleven Madison Park.

I am going in a couple months. If you are unable to secure a reservation, I would also heartily recommend Grace. To date, my best meal award (topping Le Bernardin and Eleven Madison Park and Daniel (pre-drop to 2 stars)).
