I was in New York this past weekend vacationing. As usual, I like to find nice restaurants with good food. We made reservations at Cafe Gray because it was mentioned on our guide book as one of the beat place to dine in NY city. When we arrived, the hostess wasn't as friendly, however, our waiter was terrific! He was attentive, knowledgeable about the menu and was very friendly! Their menu has a big selection of dishes. They have an open kitchen where you can see the chef cook, great lay out!
My first course was the lobster salad and my main course was a coconut red snapper dish. I loved both of my dishes! The salad was not drenched in dressing and the lobster was a nice touch, very refreshing. The presentation was absolutely beautiful! The fish was baked with coconut crumbs on top of it and it was just delish! For dessert, I had the Apricot Tiramisu and that was great. I love how they put a lot of rum in it. All in all, this was one of the best dining experience in NY.
If you're visiting NY, you must visit this place. The only downside is you have to make reservations and they want you to leave at a certain time. We had reservations at 5:30 and we had to be done by 8:00 (could be a New York thing, we were told the same when trying to make reservations for Nobu). We felt like we were being rushed, but we had a musical to catch at 8pm anyhow, so the reservation time was great!
