My Opinions: The last time I was here, the food was great per usual, but I was worried that the service was going down hill since we all felt a bit smothered. Tonight, it was back to normal ... attentive, but not overbearing. (Phew!)
I still wish their "lounge" could feel more like its own entity (maybe a partition to hide the host stand), but the bar, Drink, is just next door. As far as Menton's interior goes, I love the frosted white glass lighting, and the generous space between the tables offered privacy - yes, the pre-fix pricing is not cheap, but neither is the food. They also have a delicious and comprehensive wine list to pair with the meal. I have yet to taste the add-on truffle option, so it's something I can try next time.
From the amuse bouche to the cheese cart, the food is top-notch! I enjoyed the 4-course option again, plus an added cheese plate, and I was really impressed with everything ... I just hope they keep working on making tastier deserts. I'm looking forward to coming here again soon.
