Best part was the inventive desserts, blueberry was the best with a bunch of different parts coming together perfectly (loved the hard cake consistency with soft middle and ice cream)
 
Red berry was really impressively made to look like a tomato and tasted delicious to me, reminding me of the best memories of chocolate jelly rings with great chocolate crumble (think carvel chocolate crunch but a lil softer).

Finally I loved being full with a bill around 250 all in, and was very impressed with the most lit (literally) bathroom at a high end kosher restaurant ever. U could see the toilet, the mirror, and even how fat u are, which is something most restaurants try to dim away.

Anyone know about New York Kosher rabbi yaakov naiman (from ner yisroel?)? Is that a good hechsher? Years ago we always got pizza from bagels & co but not sure that was hechsher, is it ok?

Went back to Tabernacle, Tuna Tartare was very good but not mind blowing. Slightly better than Nui Due Carne's dish which is very similar.  Holy Smokes cocktail was good but didn't live up to my memory of it. Kitchen broke down and they couldn't provide main courses.

glad i didnt go there (one of our options), still hoping to try someday. tuna tartare in US is almost always the same everywhere, some tuna (could distinguish freshness perhaps), some guac-type mix, perhaps some tahini or if "crazy" baba ganoush, and some type of crisp chip. i loved the tuna in the ritzilyiah which was pretty different.

As I was walking out they claimed the kitchen was back up and running. Good for my diet though.

Only took off 1 cocktail from my tab, when I think whole bill should've been comped but wasn't going to argue

Cocktails there are pretty great, but are also inconsistent and the same drink doesn't taste the same each time.
Our steak fell on the waiter's pants crotch and we didn't get anything off the bill, so you did well. Though to be fair, I also didn't ask for anything.
Had pretty great experiences there until that, pity.

Crispy Thai Beef is excellent
There is a meat platter appetizer which is huge and very good
I liked the lamb chops
Don't remember anything else offhand

Crispy beef, sushi and if they still have it, the olive cake dessert is really good.

sorry i missed this i would go lamb chops. steaks arent tough (i've generally preferred the simple rib chop over the others). sadly olive cake wasnt on menu recently (was my fave too). their bacon app is really great, and chef kame's chicken is a fan favorite, and all the raw tuna/salmon apps in general are can't miss for me. the recent add of the chicken strips on top of a watermelon wasnt worth it imho.

Sounds like a pattern. Surprising for an owner who is more interested in quality/prestige than making money

Finally went to Mocha Red last night. Drinks were very good and the music made for a fun environment, the only drawback being that it's also harder to talk to people b/c of the volume. We ordered a lot of the apps (don't exactly remember all of them, tacos, chicken and waffles), the crispy sushi stood out to me though. Was not so impressed with the mains, we got one of the larger steaks which wasn't so flavorful IMO.

All in all was a fun night but I think food quality could use improvement for the prices they are charging.
