Customer Reviews
Restaurant decor is lovely. I eas expecting over the top service as well as cuisine based on the reviews i read. The server was less than attentive though the back staff was great! Pinot Grigio (10 oz) was delivered but ice didnt come until halfway through the finish, French onion soup tasty, drunken figs hard to cut through and eat, herb crusted salmon cooked nicely but not "crusted", coffee nice and hot.
Had a wonderful birthday dinner with the family downstairs in the wine room! Waiter's recs were spot on - everything was delicious. Especially the mussels, Brussels, flounder, and coconut dessert. Cocktails were okay. Looking forward to next time!
Always great. Come earlier for a drink at their great bar they have a seasonally changing artisan menu. The room is small but it reminds you how lucky you are to be there. If the fried chicken is on the menu don’t miss out. Also, the short rib Cristini with the horseradish is a new favorite.
Resturant itself is very fancy, high end establishment with prices and an menu to boot. Overall food however was just good, not mind blowing. While nothing was terrible I was expecting a bit more from a $44 fish entree. The one mixed drink we ordered was not good either - way too sour. Service was also annoyingly slow at times and our waitress took a while to bring menus, receipts, check in on us, etc. Certainly still a good place but for a restaurant that charges Michelin star prices the food and service is not there. Would still recommend it just for a upscale night out but temper expectations.
Intimate upscale restaurant with a very interesting and diverse menu. Nightly specials add to the diversity. You can get a steak or a burger; mussels or swordfish. The servers are friendly and knowledgeable. On our most recent visit, my wife had the grilled swordfish while I opted for the Mahi Mahi. Both were accompanied by the One 53 signature Fries that are skinny and super crispy (see photo). I started off with a Spinach Salad that was wonderful. The bar is a major player at One 53 with signature cocktails and a very extensive wine. I found a French white that I liked so much I will buy for my home wine frig. On a recent visit I had the Butternut Squash Ravioli (photo) that was sweet and delicious. My wife had Sauteed Shrimp with Pasta that she said was great. Parking is a challe
