MICHELIN Guide's Point Of View

One Star: High quality cooking

With oversized Champagne bottles, velvet dinner jackets, and balloons galore, Chef Aaron Silverman’s Pineapple and Pearls focuses on playful reverie; the upbeat mood rings closer to a New Year’s Eve party, and guests are encouraged to dress to impress. Dinner is a noticeably condensed affair, punctuated with potent surprises like tableside absinthe cocktails and truffle-infused amaretto warmed over candlelight. Everything comes with a story, and the approachable staff is happy to tell these tales. The equally friendly sommelier is always at the ready with terrific suggestions to pair with dishes like marinated tuna with compressed watermelon and the feather-light gnocchi with rich parmesan cream.
