This week join us at Mercer Kitchen

"As “upscale basements” go, this “well-known” SoHo perennial via Jean-Georges Vongerichten still attracts “preciously cool”, “dressed-to-kill” folk with “consistently delicious” French–New American food served in “dark”, “stylish” digs; somewhat “snobby” service and “no-bargain” pricing are the sticking points." - Zagat.com
"Chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten oversees this super-chic (and very noisy) subterranean power-bar, lounge and restaurant in the bowels of SoHo's The Mercer. Talk about cool: the dining area extends to the turn-of-century brick walls and out under the sidewalk vault so guests below can see passersby overhead through glass bubbles in the floor-ceiling. An open kitchen and a glassed-off area feature high communal tables. Chef Christopher Beischer oversees the ethnically eclectic menu, which includes appetizers such as steamed shrimp salad with avocado, mushroom and tomato in a Champagne vinaigrette or fresh mozzarella and cherries with green and purple basil, and watercress. As for entrées, we recommend the New York strip with gingered shiitake mushrooms, caramel soy-infused sauce and french fries as well as the steamed skate with tarragon, sesame seed, asparagus and sushi rice. The warm Valrhona chocolate cake is certainly appropriate in a Vongerichten-led kitchen." - Gayot.com
