Crosby's country-club cuisine is better than it needs to be, with some dishes grand enough to stand up to the monumentally nostalgic surroundings. The bar is a roiling meat market for the over-forty and the overly tanned, but it's worth wading in for the excellent martinis.
The Crosby concept is as corny as a Road picture, but executive chef Frank Palmer’s country-club cuisine is better than it needs to be -- in some cases a lot better. The retro iceberg wedge salad is surprisingly suave, and the grilled filet with truffle-laced demiglace is grand enough to stand up to the monumentally nostalgic surroundings. The bar is a roiling meat market for the over-forty and the overly tanned, but it’s worth wading in for the excellent martinis.
