Well...... if you can afford it & not get upset about a $400 meal that's very good, but not especially filling (kindof reminds me of El Bulli - my husband was still hungry after 29 courses!). It is an excellent restaurant, probably one of our best - if you can relax & enjoy it, great. If you're worried about the total, I wouldn't go there. Also depends on how trendy you like your food - for good old standards in a luxe atmosphere, go to the Ritz or 21 Oceanfront in Newport. Studio has incredible views - ask for a window table - if you're staying there, I'd make a resv now (tell them it's a special occasion) & you can decide once you arrive.
P.S. If you get all excited about a cheese concierge, as I do, you just might love it!
