From the OpenTable editors: For when only the biggest blowout celebrations will do, this Midtown hotspot's ultra-luxe menu—where caviar, naturally, is the star—can't be beat. Go for one of the three MICHELIN-Starred tasting menus, where chef Edgar Panchernikov's showstopping plates of Japanese mackerel, white asparagus, and oysters are all topped with caviar. Velvet booths, floor-to-ceiling windows, and tall chandeliers only reinforce just how special it feels to eat here.

We made a spur of the moment Birthday brunch reservation at Caviar! What a delight! I live to”dine” and relax and there could not have been a more lovely place than Caviar Russe!From John who confirmed our reservation to Armando - the maitre de our dining experience was complete! The original presentation and menu choices were superior! Having dined at Per Se in NYC Caviar Russe surpassed the experience! From the Caviar service and champagne and wine selections to the three course menu every bite was better than the last! The Hudson Valley Foi gras was presented so beautifully and delicious! The tasmanian trout over a white sweet potato puree with lemongrass oil was spectacular! If you have the opportunity to experience this Michelin star restaurant it is worth every calorie!
