Unexpectedly lukewarm service and food – I took a dear friend to Annisa for a special occasion. Our first impression: the place was loud. We got a nice table, but it wasn't until a few of them emptied that conversing ceased to feel like an unnecessarily loud indulgence. Annisa seems to have an acoustics problem. The good news is: acoustics may be the least solvable of its ambiance-related problems. The restaurant has surprisingly dirty--in some areas filthy--walls that dim lighting does very little to hide and the quality of... read more

Gracious service, helpful waitstaff, Very good food – 12/8/07 dinner at 8. Made convenient online reservation. Took female friend out to dinner. Seated w/i 2 minutes of arrival. Never heard of this place until I the day before I had dinner here. Selected this place based on the positive citysearch reviews here. These positive reviews are all on the money as I agree w/ them. Relaxing place w/o being pretentious. Waitstaff helped us select a very good wine. Nice wine list. The food is a given. That is, the food is very good. T... read more

Brilliant food, flawless service, intimate ambiance – One of my favorite restaurants. No gimmicks, no showing off, just brilliant, fresh AmerAsianFrench food from a menu that changes all the time. I go several times a year, and each visit is memorable and deeply satisfying. It's expensive, of course, but always seems worth the price. If you really want to do it right, have Jen suggest a wine for each course -- their wine list features women vintners (and sake makers). Also a great place to have a drink if you happen to be an... read more

Simple, quiet backdrop for deliciously thought-out food – Went here on a double date. The ambiance is perfect for two couples to get together and actually ahve a conversation on a Saturday night. I also raelly liked the decor, even though it was rather simple. The large window out front over looking Barrow street raelyl adds charm to the place. It really feels like a local food coinasseur's hang-out. We all ordered the 5 course tasting menu (as recommended by the waitress that everyone on the table should participate) and en... read more

Elegant West Village – My mom and I went here for dinner, and we both really enjoyed it. Although they seated the two of us at a four top side by side which was a little wierd and almost looked like I was on a date with my mom, the food was incredible. I consider their food to be the best I have tasted in this city. I had an Indian eggplant appetizer that melted in my mouth and a roasted chicken as a main. I tried some of my mom's fish as well. Everything was so flavorful and rich, I savored every bite! For dessert we had ap... read more

Superb! – I enjoy fine dining and Annisa is at the top of my list of favorite restaurants. The interior of the restaurant is somewhat chic with its plain white walls, minimalistic furniture and vases filled with branches. The atmosphere is subdued, serene and inviting. The cuisine is eclectic as my taste buds identified the blend of American, French and Asian flavors. Lo is on to something here with this new way of cooking. It is understated, highly imaginative and dynamic. Annisa also offers an extensive selection of wines.... read more

The most Exquisite tasting menu ever – A simple, classy, peaceful place with a tasting menu that seems custom made . Incredibly accomodating and courteous staff. We went there in a group of 6 people for our friend's birthday and opted for the 5-course tasting menu. They asked us if we were allergic to anything, or if there was something that we would not eat... like fish or red-meat, etc. The food they served seemed like it was designed for each person. Every dish was unique, unlike anything I've ever eaten before. At desser... read more

beautiful tailored tasting menu – It's been a while since I've had beautifully orchestrated food and this place did not disappoint. The service was a bit on the sluggish side at the beginning, but that was quickly forgotten with the delectable combination of flavors and texture. The highlights were the fois gras soup dumpling, full of flavor and impact (although mine was not as soupy as Boyfriend's), the perfectly grilled trout, the juicy long island duck paired with the most amazing of flavors - wine and house pickled plum.... read more

Nice, but not as impressive as expected – Came in for a meal with very high expectations as I had heard so many wonderful complements. Being a foodie, I ordered the tasting menu and was wowed by the presentation -- simply gorgeous. The food however, is a different story. There was great inconsistency in the juxtaposition of flavors and I left rather disappointed. Maybe it was just an off night for them and I'd be willing to give it another try.
