Le
Comptoir
is
not
just
a
restaurant.
Chef
Gary
Menes
brings
you
an
experience
that
combines
impeccable
taste
with
an
at-home
feel
as
you
enjoy
the
masterpieces
he
brings
out
in
an
eight-course
journey.
You
are
one
of
10
people
seated
facing
the
kitchen
where
the
magic
happens.
Chef
begins
by
introducing
himself
and
his
team
(Josh
and
Jonathan,
both
of
whom
have
been
with
Chef
for
8+
years).
The
cooking
and
plating
takes
place
right
in
front
of
your
eyes.
You
can
ask
questions,
all
of
which
are
answered
with
patience.
All
the
dishes
are
exceptional
and
keep
changing
daily.
The
menu
is
vegetarian
forward
but
several
of
the
dishes
can
be
substituted
for
fish/meat
options
(cooked
to
perfection)
for
additional
charge.
If
you
are
a
party
of
two
or
more,
I
recommend
one
person
get
the
standard
veggie
dish
and
the
other
get
the
meat/fish
option.
The
wine
pairing
is
great
and
all
the
wines
are
picked
out
by
the
chef
to
go
with
each
course.
Often
times
during
the
meal,
I
saw
Chef
Gary
wash
the
dishes
himself
while
his
apprentices
were
serving
us,
which
blew
my
mind.
I
did
not
expect
to
get
a
lesson
in
management
and
kindness
when
I
made
my
reservation.
My
husband
and
I
have
been
to
several
Michelin
star
restaurants,
including
Eleven
Madison
Park
in
NYC.
But
all
of
them
pale
in
comparison
to
Le
Comptoir.
It
is
the
best
dining
experience
we
have
ever
had
and
probably
will
have
for
years
to
come.
