Watching Top Chef tonight, which leads me to ask, has anyone eaten at Volt (Michael Voltaggio’s restaurant) http://voltrestaurant.com ? How was it???
If anyone goes, please give a big hug from me to their Sommelier, Neil. A good guy.
I’m also curious to hear from anyone who’s been. I believe it’s Bryan’s restaurant, no?
Yes! Bryan. My bad. Thanks!
I went a few years ago, long before I knew who Bryan was (I’m a big top chef fan).
Went with my wife, my bro, and his wife. We did the tasting menu and had a great meal. Bryan was in the kitchen. Service was great too.
We also did the wine pairings and thought that was the only part uninspired part. Wines were ok but nothing special, and certainly not worth whatever we paid (I think $25/per for 6 tastes). For ex Ken Forrester Petit - a nice wine but <$10 retail.
At the time it was (food only) $65. Now I note it is $95, so the show must be helping! I just bought my parents a gift cert there and they went last week- similary reported a great meal (although Bryan not there).
