Menton

Dietary restrictions: We were happy that they were able to accommodate vegan and allium free food.

I don’t know why this is 4.5. My experience was a total foodie’s daydream. This is the kind of restaurant where you should order 4 courses at once and let the experience come to you. Not cheap, no, but some people spend money on concerts because they love the art of music. Food is art! I love art all sorts. I only give 4 stars for atmosphere because a cork ceiling would help acoustics although I should add back a star bc the bathroom smells divine! ☺️ what did I eat? Oysters, caviar puffs, pistachio cream pasta, salmon, chocolate deliciousness. The point is to finish each course. Yes, leave every plate, every course! (No, don’t lick the bowl.)

I brought my wife to Menton for her 40th birthday and I am super pleased with the entire experience. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. From beginning to end, the staff did a wonderful job creating a memorable experience for us. The service was impeccable with a supreme attentiveness to detail. Both the server and sommelier shared with us special and vivid details of origins of the food and wine that truly heightened the entire dining experience. The food was not only delectable but beautiful to look at, and the wines paired perfectly with each dish. I would highly recommend this restaurant and we will certainly be returning for the next special occasion.

The entire experience was not what we expected from a restaurant of this notoriety. Food was very bland and essentially tasteless.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 This review is for their patisserie pop up. I have had the pleasure to dine at Menton in the past and could not wait to try their pop up. I must say, it was a taste sensation like no other! Every bite was a journey through flavors that left my taste buds dancing with joy. Sour Cherry and Pistachio Napoleon: A true masterpiece! The layers of flaky pastry and the delightful combination of sour cherry and pistachio created a symphony of flavors. Each bite was a blissful burst of sweetness and nuttiness. Chocolate Croissant: Pure indulgence! The rich, buttery layers enveloping the decadent chocolate made for a heavenly treat. It was like a warm hug for my taste buds. Almond Croissant: A classic redefined! The perfect balance of crunch and softness, with a generous almond filling that was simply divine. This croissant is a must-try for almond enthusiasts! Pastrami Spiced Croissant: A savory delight! The innovative blend of pastrami spices infused into the flaky layers created a unique and satisfying experience. A savory twist that I thoroughly enjoyed. One of my favorites! Carrot Cake Cinnamon Bun: A delightful fusion! The marriage of carrot cake and cinnamon bun was a stroke of genius. Moist, flavorful, and utterly satisfying – a true testament to the patisserie's creativity. One of the best cinnamon buns I have ever had. Chocolate Eclair: While the other treats swept me off my feet, the chocolate eclair, unfortunately, wasn't my personal favorite. The toffee undertones were a bit overwhelming for my taste, but I can appreciate the craftsmanship and quality. The patisserie was located where their bar usually is and it was as inviting as the flavors themselves, with a warm and friendly staff adding to the overall positive experience. 10/10 across the board, with an array of delights that will leave you craving more. Please have more pop ups!

Decent flavors but not enough bang for the buck in terms of food.

Still sitting at this restaurant, 2.5+ hours after our reservation. Haven’t received all the courses of our chef’s tasting menu and finally requested the bill prematurely after being disappointed course after course. I would have paid *not* to eat this flavorless and poorly cooked food but instead I paid over $700 for this travesty. Buyer beware.
