Tocqueville

Description
Just entering this elegant French-American eatery just off Union Square is a pleasure—the draped fabrics, warm hues and airiness of the soaring ceilings create a singularly inviting space. Husband-and-wife team Marco Moreira and Jo-Ann Makovitzky serve luxurious, expertly executed dishes that are well worth the price. Signature fare like the California sea urchin with angel hair carbonara appetizer and the spiced honey-glazed Peking duck main are at once aesthetically pleasing and delicious. Equally fabulous are the desserts, notably the strawberry granite and the goat cheesecake parfait. An impressive selection of European and American wines rounds out an unforgettable dining experience.
