An outing to B-Bar owner Eric Goode's ski lodge-sized hot spot (be sure not to miss the gorgeous outdoor patio) feels more like a night spent at a fashion show than dinner at a restaurant--and not just because of the celebrity sightings. There's a loose, anything-goes element to the style: A 30-foot tree plucked from tropical climes sits in the middle of the dining room; silly-looking amethyst geodes rest behind glass near the bathrooms; the maitre d' likes to sport red-laced sneakers with his suit.
Surprisingly, the food takes a more conservative tack. The kitchen steers a tight course between risk and reward, scoring a lot of obvious successes--tagliatelle with pancetta and English peas, suckling pig with tomatoes and orzo, chicken and andouille sausage gumbo. Desserts include a warm apple crisp and can't-miss banana beignets.
