ēst Restaurant offers a must-try truffle burrata and delicious braised beef. The four-course tasting menu is worth it, featuring impressive food, ambiance, and service. Guests appreciate the quiet atmosphere, ideal for a date. The duck confit is noted as one of the best in town, paired with tasty fried Brussels sprouts, potatoes, and bacon. The restaurant is run by younger chefs, and the food is described as absolutely outstanding. Diners have praised dishes like oysters, Caesar salad, steak tartare, and lobster agnolotti, which some have called absolutely brilliant. The truffle grilled cheese remains a popular choice on the menu. The service is friendly and helpful, making the dining experience memorable. Recent reviews highlight the exceptional food, with the smoked salmon and potato pave cooked to perfection, while the brioche French toast with foie gras was noted for its delightful sweetness. The Summerlicious lunch menu was also praised for its spectacular offerings, and the restaurant accommodated dietary needs very well. Service was generally excellent, with prompt dish delivery. Overall, ēst Restaurant is considered a gem of the east end with a commitment to outstanding dining experiences. The staff is accommodating and provides thoughtful touches, like personalized notes for special occasions. The tasting menu is not disappointing, and the drinks are fantastic.
