The restaurant’s philosophy is slow and local. If that sounds pretty fashionable these days, note that chef and co-owner Alan Merhar is surrounded by farmers, making it easy to make the most of them for his in season produce. His relationship with Mike Prochaska of Prochaska Farms, for instance (it’s four miles away), is such that each winter the two pore over seed catalogs and decide what to plant and then serve. The resulting dishes are fancy in the sense that sophisticated measures have been taken, but (mostly) all-American if you look at the ingredients. Not everything’s local, obviously: Scottish salmon, scallops, certified Black Angus steaks. But many of the side dishes will be, come summer. Desserts are made in-house and include a rich cappuccino crème brûlée, pumpkin pound cake, tiramisu, Key lime cheesecake, and blood-orange or lime-ginger sorbets.

To enter Noi is to enter a dream for the appetite as well as the mind. If Alice in Wonderland felt oddly mystified, diners in Noi feel excitedly overwhelmed – swallowed up by white-on-white minimalism – even before sampling, say, the seared duck foie gras over brioche bread pudding." ..."a study in contradictions...a stunning pristine white environment with all the colours, textures and flavors of a fine artist on the plate" ..."you simply must go!

Authentic Tex-Mex restaurant with views of Walled Lake from every window. Provides a lively bar and family atmosphere.

Owner-chef Peter Mel has transformed a dreary Coney Island into a hip eatery. The long narrow room is decorated with colorful Broadway show posters on dove-gray walls, and the theatrical motif spills over onto the menu, with “Act I” relating to breakfast, “Act II” to luncheon sandwiches and so on. Somewhere between a trendy bistro and a neighborhood hangout, Pete’s is quite reasonable, with mains averaging around $12 and appetizers and salads around $6. Be certain to ask for the specials of the day, which can include eggplant parmigiana, a near-perfect blend of cheese and tender eggplant slices floating in marinara sauce. As for the dozen permanent entrées, the “lemon chicken piccata” combines an ample portion of chicken in a subtle piquant sauce served over pasta. Four frittata-style omelets anchor the breakfast menu, and luncheon sandwiches range from corned beef on rye to a sautéed chicken breast with spinach, portabella and Gruyere pesto mayo, to paninis stuffed with sautéed vegetables or mushrooms and goat cheese or turkey and spinach, to that venerable classic, French dip consisting of prime-rib shavings, swiss cheese, au jus and horseradish sauce. No smoking.
