Glad to see Ginza Onodera upgraded to 2 stars. That place is a standout. Rouge Tomate being a 1 star...meh. I went there last month and came away unimpressed by the limited menu. I ate at Cote on Saturday night...one Michelin star? Feels a bit aggressive / soon.
Sad to see Junoon drop off the list - they do excellent Indian cuisine. Cagen disappearing is a bit of a surprise as well. It certainly feels like the NYC food scene is taking a hit in the eyes of Michelin reviewers...
Completely agree with you on JG. I ate twice over the summer and while food was great, service was meh (but still better than Daniel).
Plus, JG automatically starts me off in a disappointing mood when, without fail, they ask “have you dined with us before?” Clearly they fail to use Opentable to its fullest potential when they could have easily seen that I was there just 2 weeks prior.
Rant over!
