S.K.Y.

Back for the $28 pastry tier, so worthy!Cornbread is still my No.1. Don't miss it!My little one is addicted to the Gochujiang Cheese Danish, chili makes it perfect. Croissant with coconut lychee cream matches summer so well.Friendly service as always.

TL;DR - decent food and vibe, but your money is better spent elsewhere.The mushroom salad was probably my favorite dish.Drinks were overpriced. They were simple, and for that pricepoint, I would expect more complexity that I felt like I couldn't make at home. I don't typically go for sakes but the one I had was very good, even if it was not the one recommended (cloudy and sweet whereas mine was crisp, umami, bold).Our waitress had a good personality and service, but generally poor recommendations and 12 apps/shareables and 7-8 mains were far more than needed. We ended up with 5 apps, 1 side and 8 mains, and we were stuffed - mind you, we are a group with large appetites.Cornbread madeleines were recommended but did not seem elevated at that price, did not fit the New American Asian-inspired theme. This is emblematic of the overall inconsistency in the menu (description "Korea, Japan, Thailand" vs. flavor profiles and dish components).The wait staff delivering dishes did not know which table to place them on after we had been clear which table was getting which dishes. I don't mind directing the delivery of food; it was just was a little unexpected at this level of restaurant. The pork chop was by far the server's biggest recommendation. However, it was dry, tough, and a little flavorless--to the extent that unfortunately, we had to send it back (which I never do). The server also said she's never heard of people sending it back. But she was very gracious with us. The rest of the mains were lacking in color diversity, and I was confused by plating choice. That said, flavors were generally good and in line with what i would expect at that level. However, not much of a wow factor.The dessert was the real standout. The seasonal pineapple sundae was delicious, full of texture flavor and visually appealing, as was the budino. These should stay on the menu.

Good group event venue. The team recommended a list of dishes based on size of group and allergies. The wide and well balanced selection of dishes was a huge hit. It was impressive that they were able to make everything delicious and creative. The fried chicken is something I often think about, I have always loved fried chickens, but this took it to a whole new level, the unique texture of the breading, the fact that it was served with habanero butter!! and creamed corn!! It hit all the spots. The Foie Gras Bibimbap with mushroom bulgogi was such a good idea well executed as well. The team is easy to work with in planning. The info was slightly misleading tho, we think we had booked a private room but it was just in the public room with 2 tables shoved together, and it was a bit loud too. The week (May 2023) we came happened to be when they first rehired their staff since Covid changes and things were a bit slow and they made some mistakes with our complex orders (a huge group with many allergies). But they were pleasant and kept giving us dishes that we liked to remedy the situation. I'd definitely come back with a group, that's how you can try all the amazing stuff!

First off, my partner and I have been here many times over the past two years. I don't write many reviews but my latest visit led me to share this. S.K.Y seems to have it all at a glance, good bar, ambiance, good food, and a well considered wine menu. Where it begins to crack is the service. There is a tangible feeling of anxiety, some sort of pressure to leave as soon as possible (mind you, most nights we've been are relatively quiet). I don't think it's the waiters fault as much as the pressure from management, it's as if they are trained to make an otherwise relaxing experience uncomfortable and rushed. Since I am in the neighborhood, I REALLY want S.K.Y to work. But for whatever reason, we are always doing a cost benefit analysis before going. And nine times out of ten, we end up going somewhere else.

Summary: high pricepoint for a mid experienceHighlights: dessertLowlights: mainsI went recently for a friend's birthday. The ambiance was nice, but the service, quality of food, and cocktail menu were disappointing for the pricepoint.Service:We had a group of 8, which we split in two in terms of ordering. As food came out, wait staff delivered dishes to the wrong side of the table. Wasn't a big deal, but was not what I expected from a $$$ restaurant.Our server had a lot of personality and was extremely professional, but their recommendations didn't make a lot of sense (eg recommended the cornbread for the apps as opposed to the hamachi), and used terms not listen on the menu to describe the menu items. For example, they recommended a sake but didn't use the name of the sake but rather one of the subheader words from the menu, so following their suggestions was a bit difficult.Additionally, for a majority Korean American group, it was painful to hear wait staff mispronounce bibimbap and gochujang, which gave us the ick. Although the pork belly noodles were good, the noodles looked similar to the ones i get from the Asian grocery store for $5 near my home. When we asked if the noodles were made in house, we were told "they are imported straight from China"...which....so are the ones I get for much cheaper.Food:Quality of the food was fine.The warm mushroom salad was excellent, full of flavor and texture. However, the mains fell flat - the plating was pretty monochromatic (for example, the seabass was beige with a beige sauce). The salmon was a standout, but wasnt even mentioned by the server as a suggestion.We were recommended the pork chop, as "it's never been sent back," so we ordered 2. Unfortunately, we painstakingly ate one, and sent the other back. I've never had pork chop so dry. Drinks:Sake selection is good. The cocktails were $16 but very simple and not unique, which was unfortunate.Dessert:Desserts blew our minds. Would come back again, but only for dessert.

Overall I enjoyed our meal here! They had a lot of interesting dishes with Asian influences. Our server was very kind and attentive, and she gave us a lot of information on the dishes based on the food allergies/aversions that we had. The restaurant had a hip atmosphere, and it was perfect for a girls' night out. On to the food- there were definitely some standouts. We really enjoyed the truffle croquettes, dry aged steak tartare and Mediterranean sea bass. The fish was so juicy and tender. The fried chicken dish was a cool iteration of the classic chicken sandwich. The dishes are beautiful, and many of the dishes have the added experience of tableside sauce pours! We were also big fans of the pineapple lychee guava cheesecake brulee! It had great flavors and textures. Some dishes that fell flat for me included the vegetable sides. The broccoli dish was very heavy with the sauce, and the brussel sprouts were okay but a bit on the salty side. The duck dish itself was decent, but the scallion pancakes/crepes were a bit bland and sponge-y. I kind of just wanted a normal scallion pancake with it.I think S.K.Y. is worth checking out!

All the food here was all super interesting, and worked really well. So many types of fusion food that I'd never seen anywhere else that they managed to make absolutely delicious, like lobster dumplings, and duck confit served with small scallion pancake crepes (suggested to eat by making little tacos out of the duck meat in the crepes). Dessert was also incredible, with this fruity pineapple and lychee flavored cheesecake brûlée. Everything tasted amazing, and was totally worth even the price being more on the steeper end. Staff was super friendly, with great recommendations and made us feel super welcome! The restaurant has a really cool ambience, and is highly recommend this place!

I came here with a large group. It was a last minute decision. We called before we headed out, surprisingly they had a table ready for us. We were not seated inside but rather in the bar area. The green velvet chairs were def made for cooler temperatures as sitting too long made my back very hot. The front doors were left open which made the space warm. My group decided to split all the entrees and apps. We ordered 5 apps to share. We also ordered 5 entrees and one side. After that, we ended with two desserts. I would say that this was not enough for the group. We each had a bite of the entrees and then that's it. I'm pretty sure that if you don't share like we did, you would feel more full. I took one star off because of how warm the space felt. I wish they offered us seating in the main dining area but I understand it was last minute.

What a wonderful evening! Called for a last minute reservation and was told that only lounge seating was available but they'd put me on the list if anything in the main dining room opened up. We ended up enjoying our meal at the chefs table and had a wonderful experience.Our server was very nice, and allowed us to do one tasting menu plus à la carte items. Some menu highlights we loved:- the mushroom salad was delicious and would highly recommend - the lamb chop on the tasting menu had an amazing flavor, would love to see that on the regular menu - banana bundio was out of this world, think banana cream pie meets a fantastic granola Items I wouldn't get again:- hamachi sashimi, it was really tasty but the portion was not worth it in my opinion Can't wait to go again!

My goodness. Our jaws literally dropped when the desserts came out. We swung by for quick desserts and instantly wanted to come back another time for the full dining experience.
