Villard Restaurant

The historic setting of The New York Palace Hotel, where the restaurant is located, provides a sense of timeless luxury. It's the kind of place where every detail is meticulously designed, from the lavish décor to the soft, ambient lighting. Now, on to the food. Villard's menu is a testament to culinary creativity and innovation. It masterfully combines classic American ingredients with contemporary techniques, resulting in dishes that are both visually stunning and incredibly delicious. In conclusion, Villard is a culinary gem that elevates New American cuisine to new heights. It's a place where tradition meets innovation, where every dish is a work of art, and where the ambiance exudes elegance. If you're seeking an exceptional dining experience in the heart of New York City, Villard is the place to indulge in the very best of American gastronomy.

High end breakfast: the upscale ambience could in itself make the experience. Still, the menu also contributes very positively: its classic local elements are finely tuned to bring their "common" tastes to excellence (pancakes in particular). Comes at a (reasonably expected) high price. Worth a shot!
