Jean Marie: The crudo is amazing and so is the spaghetti. The lounge at the Four Seasons is great for after dinner drinks.
Kirsten Alana: If the 'Blueberry Limonata' is on the menu, order it. Great, refreshing cocktail that perfectly showcases its namesake flavors.

Roseanne Brown: Must must try the rhubarb cream soda!!!
Wael Hazzazi: Menu changes constantly, from this menu my favorite orders were wild salmon, egg yolk gnocchi, corn & wagyu beef cheek. Skip the desserts, didn't like any of them. Rhubarb cream soda is very good.
Valerie Brown: Extremely impressive from a beloved Top Chef. Order the mind-blowing snap peas blessed with liquid nitrogen for the perfect temperature, Halibut, didn't love the apple dessert - gastronomy overload.

USA TODAY: This diner offers a full menu, but we love the pies. Try the gooseberry. It's got a lattice crust and more tart than rhubarb. It's said to be a favorite of actor Nicolas Cage. Read more.

Neal U.: Pampas Grill = Cheap, amazing Brazilian food. Make sure to try the Russian bakery too.

Bravo: A small glimpse into Old Hollywood with produce stands and lots of really good food stalls. -Danielle Keene, Top Chef Just Desserts
