A plaque from La Chaine des Rôtisseurs, an elite gastronome society, and an effusive server greet diners before they are confronted with the whopping wine list at the table (of the 52,000 bottles in the cellar, most are beyond expensive). The middle-aged crowd of locals, minor celebrities and wine lovers can get rowdy, but the service remains flawless. The kitchen produces beautiful classics, such as the roast partridge with deeply flavoured albufera sauce and matchstick vegetables. Gratin of lobster with corn, squash and spinach is a perfect collaboration of textures. Imagination continues at dessert: fennel ice cream tops a lovely lemon pudding cake. Mains $30–$44.
