Located on the second floor within the corporate lobby of
the Alexandria Center, Riverpark has a strange feel. Adding to the awkward are the restrooms,
which are located outside the restaurant in the corporate lobby. Aside from the layout, the restaurant itself is the perfect
mix of modern, classic and elegant with dim lit lightening and a refreshing
view neighboring the East River that customers swear are worth the trek to Kips
Bay. The food is a play on New American cuisine with most of the
produce found within the Riverpark rooftop garden or at the locale farmers
market in Union Square. True to Tom
Colicchio’s approach, the food is exquisitely plated, not overly jazzed up and complex yet there is
hint of feeling underwhelmed throughout the meal. As to the restaurant week menu, guests get a
taste from the actual menu with some supplements.
