Best French

Its Frenchness is not as singularly French as some of its grandiose competitors’, but this is still the restaurant I’d choose if I had only one meal to eat in Manhattan.

It’s not really best French, or best fish. It’s simply a series of the most extraordinary sensations your mouth will ever feel without your having to kiss back.
