Colicchio and Sons
85 Tenth Avenue
(at the corner of 15th Street)
This restaurant was disappointing to say the least. Despite the number of kitchen and wait-staff on hand, as we are quickly learning here in NYC, this does not necessarily equate to a great experience. Sister-chef KM and the industry crew had arrived in NYC that night and unfortunately this provided a sub-standard first impression of the NYC dining scene.
The restaurant presented like something from a plushed-up, cavernous, over-styled casino restaurant. We persisted and sampled over ten dishes in total with each as bland and as uninteresting as the previous. The food itself was technically correct and was cooked well, but clearly lacking in any love.
The only redeeming feature was the six brioche bread buns that were light and deliciously soft with a buttery texture and just the right amount of chipped salt sprinkled on the top crust.
In a nutshell, it was beige food.
I won’t be back!
