Revillon @ Feelings

 

Feelings

Feelings created the multi-course wine dinner as we know it, back in the 1970s. It evolved into an a la cart restaurants inside some of the city's oldest buildings. The menu and style were also getting on in years. The restaurant has new owners during the past year, resulting in a drastic change in the menu, from old-style Southern and Creole to a highly eclectic set of ideas. I haven't tried it yet, so I give no ratings or recommendations.

FULL REVIEW

All the Reveillon menus can be perused here. We'll feature one every day throughout the Reveillon season, which runs in most of the Reveillon restaurants until December 31.The snowflake ratings are for the Reveillon menu, not the restaurant in general. Dishes marked with the snowflake symbol ✽ are my recommendations.
