A grand French restaurant, it's become a genuine special-occasion destination — combining refined French cooking and an excellent wine list with one of the most spectacular and opulent dining rooms in the city.

The appeal is that combination of accomplished French cuisine, polished service and a truly breathtaking setting: soaring ceilings, grand architecture and a sense of occasion that makes any meal feel memorable.
