Per Se is completely in a league of its own on the NY fine-dining scene. The 9-course tasting menu is a culinary journey you'll be telling all your friends about for weeks. I'm getting hungry again just writing about it. The dishes were exquisitely constructed and the service was fantastic. I wasn't crazy about the generic colors used in the decor, but my taste buds were too happy to notice. In the end, almost $700 for dinner for 2 might be steep, but when the right occasion comes along, there's no place I'd rather be.
Pros: Phenomenal food, terrific service, great views
Cons: price, so-so decor
