THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED Ixia Restaurant Review:

THIS ESTABLISHMENT IS CLOSED Ixia’s menu has morphed in the years since its birth, going from inventive pan-Asian to a generalist’s global approach. You can find a sashimi small plate, but you can also dine on Scottish salmon with creamed morel mushrooms or sauerbraten-braised lamb shanks. Nothing, however, has changed about the appeal of the restaurant’s interior. The dining room is the most intense shade of synthetic blue, with architectural details picked out in gold, and shimmering floor-to-ceiling curtains with the appearance of spun steel. And the bar is still a dark, sexy enclave, with lounging chairs, couches and cushioned banquettes. The food no longer piques the imagination as much as the environment, but what it lacks in exoticism it has gained in consistency. Wednesdays and Thursdays bring special tasting menus created by chef Kevin Miller.
