15 EAST @ Tocqueville 1 East 15th Street, Manhattan, New York 10003

"15 East is one of the most popular fine dining restaurants on RED and we finally gave it a visit on our anniversary. The decor is brilliant and beautiful with intimate ambiance. Their portion was great, so 3-course was enough for us to enjoy our night. One of our favorites was the Cheese Bread from Amuse, the texture was soft and chewy with flavorful taste. Sea Urchin and Angel Hair Carbonara from our 1st course was extremely rich and creamy but not greasy at all. Their Duck Breast was one of my favorites recently and it was cooked properly, soft & tender. Our dessert was amazingly beautiful with delicate taste. This is their Costa Rican Cold Poached Pineapple."

"This is place is a statement for class, romance and elegance. Did the coursed menu. Loved absolutely every single dish. Presentation and taste profile were on point. I added to my reservation that it was a romantic date and they went above and beyond to make our table full of candles and flowers. The Captain Miguel Vega tuck care of our visit. I manage at a 5 start Diamond award restaurant in Miami located in the heart of Brickell and this place deserves this award. To end the night with the perfect touch Miguel gifted us the flower arrangement from our table. 100/100 recommend it."

"The interior is great, food was ok, the service ruined it all… The restaurant is ambitious and wants to be in the high-end category but the service is inconsistent and is far off: They give hand towel to our neighbor table but not give it to us. The server’s hair is all over the place. They served one dish before the previous one was finished… then they just run back immediately pretending like nothing happened. They serve dishes randomly without remember/asking which is which.. Also see they serve the wrong dish to our neighbor table.. We were prepared to give 15% tip but they charge 20% mandatory.. I mean a lot of good restaurants do that but their service was above and beyond.. the service here is definitely not deserves 20%."

"Every single staff member here was friendly and professional. So we were able to enjoy a delicious dinner. The atmosphere was quiet and elegant, the food was delicious, and the wine pairing by Sommelier Bruno exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend this place to all wine & food lovers. Great place for a girls night out too."

"Marco Moreira is the head chef and owner of 15 East @ Tocqueville with inventive contemporary cuisine utilizing French-American and Japanese styles. He combined two Michelin-recognized restaurants into one beautiful place. Tocqueville, with decades of history, and 15 East, a Japanese restaurant housed together with a bold interior design that resembles Parisian townhouses. What an amazing place to bring your significant other for a romantic dinner. In ancient China, only the emperor gets to enjoy forbidden black rice hence the name forbidden. Tonight, we have the opportunity to eat like a king! Everything is so delicate and delicious that words simply cannot describe properly. They even iron every tablecloth so ensure perfection."
