Left Bank — Restaurant in New York

My friend and I went here prime time on a Friday night and, given its high Zagat rating, we were surprised that we had no trouble getting a table. The food was excellent. We ordered three things. The Brussel sprouts were not whole but shaved and served with a nice dressing and crunchy things (either nuts or dried chick peas). I never had sprouts this way and loved the flavor.

I think this was our favorite of all of the things we got! Oysters, according to my dad, were the best he ever had!

If you just want something cozy and a menu that’s full of classics with a bit of flair, this...

The waiter was great. However, the general manager can’t recall her name, but she was very welcoming unpleasant having sidebars with the staff in regards to me made me feel very uncomfortable and I’m disturbed by this establishment.I thought it was unprofessional, lack elegance, and uncouth also I thought like I was being rushed. I had a glass of wine, happy hour, and some Parmesan fries first time in Restaurant confrontation with white people ridiculous. It’s crazy it feels crazy it is crazy part of the psyche Systemic, micro, aggression, passive aggressive racism need to be examined for what it is. but what it is racism. What are they without that? regards as she was like rushing didn’t even ask the next table where they OK I was asked twice and she had The host, Tablet iPad .my name is Joseph please note she needs to take a culture class and a fine dining course in hospitality.
