Silverleaf Tavern
|
Flourishes of Rococo-era character adorn this refined American restaurant in Murray Hill. Draped in elegance, this lavish hotel tavern is fashioned more for upscale dining than drinking. Velvet-backed chairs, a communal banquet table, and still-life paintings set in gold frames recall Baroque opulence, while plush leather booths and the eye-catching custom chandelier--a silver, crystal-leafed vine twinkling with tiny intertwined bulbs--modernize the special occasion space. Despite overhead digital art and an amethyst bar, the less whimsical lounge suits casual travelers with flat screens and low seating.
The new American menu also pursues an antiquated-but-updated decadent design. The signature starter rejuvenates classic French toast with a deliciously unsweet combination of truffle fondue, goat cheese filling, and sauteed mushrooms. The juicy hangar steak gets a touch of old New York, with its size of potato knish hiding tender short ribs, while charred steak-sized servings of lamb frite arrive with humdrum shoestring fries. Rich dessert crepes ooze warm cheesecake, but the Belgian waffle banana split is pure, caramelized extravagance.
What to Wear
Though the restaurant maintains a casual dress code, the atmosphere is fancy enough that dressing up might be more comfortable.
What to DrinkCocktail guru Dale DeGroff is the mind behind the specialty list---full of contemporary twists like the Stonewall's cider, rum, and ginger beer and syrup mix.
The ExtrasDrink wine by the sip (three-ounce pour), taste (glass), discovery (bottle), or drink (the bottomless option).
