75 Wall Street at Water – Hyatt Hotel – Financial District

We really were surprised and very grateful to get a killer restaurant downtown. The atmosphere is chic, service is first class, and food is memorable. I would highly recommend it for special occasions. The bar looks quite cool as well. I assume during the week it is madness, but it was quite mellow on a Saturday.

Standouts were the potato soup, old style Maine shrimp cocktail, roasted young chicken, grilled lamb loin, and the piping hot personal apple pie.

Note: The wine prices were off the rails – $21 & $25 a glass

Check out the bar sometime.  It may be a wall-streeter draw, but it looks lovely.
