Tom, Tom, Tom...(sigh)\n\nI am an avid food enthusiast & regularly watch your show (Top Chef) and admire how you critically pin-point flaws/perfection in hundreds of dishes through-out your career.\n\nI'll keep it short & sweet (maybe a little sharp too)...\n\n1.) SCALLOPS ($40) - Best dish, perfect sear, cooked just enough to retain the moisture in the scallop.  The beurre blanc sauce or what not could've used a bit of thickening but still was delicious.  I really enjoyed the accompanying pickled white onions that came with.  I truly and thoroughly enjoyed this dish.\n\n2.) RISOTTO ($14) - About 3-5% overcooked.  Yet, still tasty.  The pine nuts accent the risotto & parmesan and work well together.  And although it was tasty I felt it could've used more of a kick.  Risotto is something I really love eating, especially when it has a somewhat addictive flavor that leaves you wanting more.\n\n\n\nNow that I've said that, on to the steaks:\n\n3.) DOMESTIC RIBEYE ($50) - Visually stunning especially when plated in the metal pan carrying all the delicous jous.  However, by the time I got to my steak, which was a perfect med-rare, it was tough and just inedible.  (Maybe I should mention I had been just getting over a cold.  However, I dont think this should alter my taste judgement too much because the first two appetizers were tasting mighty fine.)  I really wanted to like it, and I just couldn't get less than half of it down.\n\n4.) DOMESTIC WAGYU RIBEYE ($105) - Again, Visually stunning.  It tasted like a cross between a fatty short rib & a ny strip.  However, and AGAIN, texture failed, it was warm to cold and barely was edible.  More-so edible than the previous mention, but still not worth nearly what it costed.  I really dont wan't to say this, but goto Outback and order a \"teriyaki ribeye\" and you'd enjoy that 7 times more than this...I feel depressed now.\n\nAnyway, all in all, I wouldn't go back.  I honestly wanted to like it..REALLY I DID. Perhaps next time I will attempt Jean Georges Steakhouse or another variety.  I will probably never enter another Tom Colicchio restaurant ever again due to the severity of this incidental experience.  First and last time for Tom Colicchio as far as I'm concerned.  Sorry Tom, I tried.\n\nIf it means anything, you're (probably) still a very good chef (Tom Colicchio).\n\n\nTOTAL BILL: $235
