After asking to be moved away from the waiter station, our second table was great. It is beautiful, but I was disappointed with the tasting menu. It took us till the 5th course to finally moan from the meat course. I found both the scallop and salmon courses to be overcooked - the cod was great. I've been drinking Veuve all week for my b-day celebrating and thought I'd try something different, but their Daniel champagne was horribly off. I definitely feel this restaurant is overrated. Maybe the better chefs from the kitchen were all at his cafe as it just received a wonderful write up in the NY Times. Stick to meat as it seems they know that best, but if you want seafood, Le Bernardin will always be on the top.
