Dinner was a wonderful experience with excellent service. We enjoyed multiple appetizers and each of us loved our main dishes. We all went with different pasta dishes and all were delicious. This will be our go-to place downtown especially for drinks!

This is definitely a place to come with at least four people so you can try a bunch of dishes…read more I would honestly be sad to come here just as a couple because then you don't get to try as many of the amazing dishes Elliott Astor has to offer. We started with the pull apart Bread that is absolutely a must get and delicious. The one thing is, it is quite large, so it is a good size for 4 to 5 people, it would be a bit overwhelming for only two hence why I say come with a group. We also got the chopped salad, which I thought was good, but not great. People rave about the Caesar salad, which last time I found to be just OK, but I would probably get the Caesar over the chopped. That's a personal preference. Then we got the vodka pasta and the black truffle gnocchi. The vodka pasta, again, is an absolute must get. I love Housemade pasta, and this one is cooked perfectly. The vodka sauce isn't spicy, and I hate spice. So this is one of my favorite dishes. I didn't like the gnocchi. I found it to be too cheesy and not pillowy enough. I appreciate the black truffles, but this is one that I would skip in the future. Then we got the dry aged prime strip, with broccolini, Yukon, mashed potato, and mushrooms. The mushrooms are still, my absolute favorite, I would absolutely get it every time. Yukon potatoes were delicious, but I could feel my arteries clogging while I ate it. It was so creamy and so buttery. The broccoli was good, but not something that I feel like I have to get. The steak was amazing. We got it medium rare, and I felt like it was cooked perfectly. I loved it. For dessert I got the amaretto cookie gelato. If you don't eat pork, all the desserts other than gelato and sorbet have a pork stabilizer in it, which is disappointing. The gelato was quite good though. For my drink, I got the Mezcal margarita I had last time. It is no longer in the menu. It was just OK this time, it would've been better with the salt rim, but it came without one. Next time I'll try another drink on their menu. Valet is $15 which is great because I've come here for the spa and parking is much more expensive if you're not going to Elliot Asher. This restaurant is beautiful and service is superb. Dinner will take a couple hours and Reservations do fill up so you should book them early. I would definitely recommend coming to eat here if you're looking for a nice night out.

We've been here several times for dinner, but they just keep getting better and better. It's the cutest cozsey little place right on central and the service is always on point. Most recently, my husband and I came for dinner. We started with the burrata and plum special as well as the tuna tartare for appetizers. When I tell you I will dream about the burrata appetizer. It was that good. The tuna was delicious as well and we loved the shrimp chips and how they were shaped like little tacos to make your own tuna tacos! For dinner, I got the branzino and my husband got the cheeseburger with truffle fries. Both entrees were incredible. No notes. Then we got three desserts...we had the lemon tart and the donut bread pudding while at the restaurant and we got a chocolate cake to go. All of the desserts were delicious. However, the donut bread pudding exceeded any expectations I had for that dessert when I ordered it. I legitimately am considering coming back next weekend just for the bread pudding.

When we first walked in, we were greeted with a smile and asked if we had a reservation. We didn't, but they were able to find us a table. It wasn't very busy when we went, but it did take a little while for them to get the table ready. The decor is definitely one of my favorite things about this place. It really feels like a library and restaurant combined, with books everywhere and the dining area downstairs. It's such a cute and cozy setting for lunch. I ordered the crispy chicken Cobb salad. It was refreshing and overall pretty good, but honestly, nothing too special in my opinion. The fried chicken wasn't as crispy as I expected and was a little dry, so I definitely needed some water with it. My husband got the club sandwich, and I actually really liked his! It was yummy and refreshing, but again, nothing that completely wowed us. For drinks, I got a glass of house wine which was really good, and my husband got an Old Fashioned. There were so many mosquitoes and flies in the restaurant, unfortunately Overall, we had a nice experience and really enjoyed the atmosphere, but considering the prices, I expected the food to be a little more impressive. I'm not sure if we would come back just for the food, but it's definitely a cute spot to check out if you're looking for a nice lunch with a unique atmosphere!

Been wanting to get by The Blu Halo since I read about this place. We had already eaten lunch, so…read morewe were really just stopping in for a couple of drinks, but that didn't stop us from trying the "Just the Tips." Really glad we did. They were so tender and the portion was huge. Honestly, this could have easily been a meal instead of an appetizer. I had the Crossbarn Pinot Noir, which was pretty good too. We sat at the bar and really liked the atmosphere. Nice, modern place but still comfortable enough to just hang out and have a drink. Our bartender was great--very friendly and took good care of us. The rest of the menu looks amazing. We only got a small taste of the place this time, but it was enough to know we'll definitely be back for a sit-down lunch or dinner.

Our favorites were the street corn croquetas and the Chipotle Roasted Snapper. They both had a perfect mix of flavors. The tuna tostadas were good but we didn't like the Smokey flavor with it. The green chickpea samosas were okay, not great in our opinion. Overall, I enjoyed my time here and would come back if I was in the area again.

I ordered their gin martini and it was pretty fun that it came deconstructed. Aka, add whichever olives you'd like and as much brine as your heart desires. We split a few apps- the veal meatballs, octopus... both were delish! I got the bone in filet as my main and it was great. The rest of my family loved their food as well.

The batter isn't overdone and the sauce is amazinggg. It also came with a stuffed broccoli decorated in the middle of the plate on top of some fried rice. Butter Chicken 10/10 -- I cannot stop thinking about the naan. This entree was beyond my expectations. I have no notes, you must try it! Peruvian Chicken 7/10 -- The chicken could be more flavorful, was a tad lacking.

The chicken pot pie was probably the best thing that we ordered. We did not have a cocktail although I've heard their drinks are really good. It's definitely a cute vibe inside.

The hot and crunchy bowl as suggested with sticky rice and seared tuna was really yummy. I did think the guacamole tasted old and not made in house. I'd rather sliced avocado as a fresher option. I also thought it could have used some edamame. My husband ordered the Mexican bowl and liked it. I tried some and didn't think it was very good. I thought the blackened chicken was tasty though. The bees sting sourdough pizza was tasty, but they ended the cheese and toppings like 4" from the crust. This made the pizza very small unless you're just eating all the crust. I really think they need to rethink their guacamole. It was low quality and really took away from the freshness of the bowls.

It's casual but still feels fun enough to stay awhile. Menu-wise, there are way too many things I want to try every time. The Hot & Crunchy Tuna bowl absolutely deserves its reputation, and the hot honey pizza was dangerously good. Also not enough people talk about the cookies because those things have no business being that addictive. What I like most is that nothing tastes overly "healthy." Everything still feels flavorful and satisfying instead of sad wellness food pretending to be exciting.

She took great care of us, and her positive energy added that lil extra! We got many things to share: garlic bread, french onion soup, mussels, filet mignon ragu gnocchi, and a vegan mushroom and veg curry dish. All were amazing! The french onion soup flavor was spot on, the garlic bread was yummy, and the fresh mussels came in a delicious sauce. The curry veg with fancy mushrooms was a really great dish - lots of surprises in the flavor and textures! We finished with a chocolate torte and that was also amazing!

The attention to quality shows in every dish. Beautiful atmosphere, outstanding food, wonderful service, and a restaurant I am 100% happy to support and recommend.
