Aujourd'hui
Last week we returned to Aujourd'hui four years after our initial visit in December 2003, at which time we considered this Four Seasons establishment to be one of the top two restaurants in the city. While we were pleased with our experience, we found it didn't live up to the expectations set from our first visit. Since out last visit, the dining room underwent a slight renovation - patrons now enter through a modern bar into a more open and modern dining room, which maintains its upscale decor. While Aujourd'hui changed chefs, the diversity of the French menu remained delightful. Our meals also impressed, but perhaps not as much as our first visit. The Gnocchi appetizer peaked our interest for the next course, while the Goat Cheese Salad was good but not outstanding. We found the same for the Beef Tenderloin and the Lobster entrees - both were top notch - prepared perfectly and flavored very well. However, they just missed the "wow" factor we were expecting. Last, the dessert actually fell flat. The Chocolate Soufflé didn't match the original and the Tarte Tartin was below par. Despite those minor letdowns, we'd still give high grades for service and ambiance. Just keep in mind that the price tag is one of the highest in the city. - posted by Mike Andrews @ 11:53 AM
