Incredible atmosphere; unidentifiable food. Blame my unsophisticated palate if you will... – Atmosphere off-the-charts, but so pretentious I could not identify one thing I was forced to order from the very limited unconventional menu. To make matters worse, the chef kept sending out complimentary "samplings" to impress us. Avocado mousse gratefully served in tiny demitasse cups, followed by a salad with "hazelnut and vanilla" dressing served in a slant-bottom bowl that I almost dumped all over the table when I speared a lett... read more
Great value at lunch – This is a great place to "do" lunch or take a date you really want to impress. Great service, VERY creative presentation, and the quality is amazing. The best value is the bento box at lunch- at $35 it is a steal!! Staff is attentive and sincere...the decor and atmosphere is modern/progressive and I always leave smiling.
NO SUBSTANCE BENEATH THE FLUFF! – The waiter spent a long time telling us about the menu (and more about his own life history in the process...talk about big ego!) We eat out a lot at great restaurants and I can safely tell you the food was very, very average. The prawn appetizer was too spicy and looked like a $5 parwn curry at an Indian restuarant. Avoid the seabass---way too salty even for a salt fiend like me. My friend's lamb was too well done..we returned it. By the time it got back, everyone else had finished their fo... read more
POOR execution of food for an Expensive price – I just had dinner at Asiate tonight and am so disgusted I am staying up to write this review. First, it's fixed price only at $75 -- which is not a problem as long as this elegant restaurant with a very attentively-trained staff could actual EXECUTE its food prep and plating sufficiently. Both my seared foie gras appetizer and 5-spiced duck entree were COLD -- and the entree (duck) was sloppy in its plating! And if that wasn't bad enough, I was charged $41 to 2 glasses of wine ... read more
Costly but Memorable – I won't soon be forgetting my dining experience here. We came for my father's 50th Birthday and our party of 6 ended up with a total bill (tip included) of nearly $750. Needless to say, at ~ $125 per person, it's not a place you go every day, but rather only on a special occasions. The view is perfect for a romantic evening with your partner or an upscale family affiar. The pre-fix menu with wine pairing (highly recommended) is a slow and exciting way to make the evening pass as the waiters dance aroun... read more
Interesting Cuisine, Great Ambiance, Slow Service – Made reservations for two and were seated promptly upon arrival. The space is impressive with its glass wine display, and floor to ceiling vista. The presentation was clever, and the food tasty however the service that accompanied it was so slow it made us feel neglected. The sommelier on the other hand was quite knowledgeable asking each of us what we had chosen for entrees before recommending an appropriate wine. Chances of returning are slim unless paying with a corporat... read more
Try the prix fix menu! – I just returned from dinner at Asiate. Have I had better meals? Of course. But this was outstanding. I read the reviews of others here, who seem to have ordered from the menu, rather than trying the tasting menu. Wow. The winter tasting menu with wine pairings is amazing. We enjoyed a leisurely 2.5 hour meal -- impeccable service, polite, not a an ounce of pretention, only professionalism. The second course of the tasting menu... wow! It alone was worth the price. The only not so tasty element - the ... read more
horrific tourist trap to be avoided at all costs – how dare they call this tourist trap a french japanese restaurant? everything takes like it was mocrowaved in an airplane and served up by crass, rude, nasty, and snobby waiters who don't seem to speak any western language at all -- what a truly vile waste of money -- yes, there is a nice view but you can get the same view at vastly cheaper prices on almost any tourist trip of manhattan -- who needs this pretentious, awful, snobby, ghastly place to bilk you our of your well-... read more
A nice one-time experience – This is a great place to go when you want to be somewhere really nice with excellent service and a fabulous view. The only problem is that the food was good rather than spectacular, which is what I'd like to expect from a place this 'nice.' It might just be that we ordered the weakest contender, rack of lamb. It seems like the chef is creative, but not enough to pull the food from good to wow.
