My wife and I went to Meson last weekend for the first time. A couple of good friend had recommended it to us, and, we had no idea what we had been missing!
Upon stepping into the restaurant, you know you are in for a treat. The atmosphere and decorations are beautiful: a mix of retro-europe and old hollywood glamour. But nothing compares to the food! We started out with an order of escargot and tortellini carbonara... I think Im addicted to their tortellini carbonara now. The dish was simply delicious, and perfectly cooked. For our entrees, my wife ordered the low-carb treat composed of grilled lobster tailed and grilled beef tenderloin. They were nicely prepared and served with a side of steamed veggies and the most delicious bernaisce sauce my wife has ever tasted. As for me, I opted for the duck. Let me say, that I have never been a fan of duck, but they have just changed my mind. It was prepared to perfection! and the red wine sauce was savory and delicious. Although, we were already full, we still wanted to try a dessert. We asked the waiter for suggestions, and he told us that their creme brulee was home-made. We tried it, and it undoubtedly was the cherry on top of a great dining experience. I would recommend Meson to anyone... To dine there truly is an experience.
Pros: great food, wonderful atmosphere, great service
Cons: there should be more than one location
