Eric Ripert's perennial seafood-based menu seamlessly transitions from course to course, unearthing a wonderland of undersea treasures and transforming them into taste revelations. The chef also manages to uphold the original vision of its founder, the late Gilbert Le Coze. Alongside Maguy Le Coze, Gilbert's sister, and a longtime and dedicated brigade, the team continues to spawn many a culinary crusade.
