Jeffrey Chodorow has sure had more downs than ups lately; the Rocco Dispirito debacle, Caviar & Banana, Wild Salmon closings, Bruni trashing Kobe Club, etc. So, he sorely needed to make a comeback. And he did, in a big way with...

i guess the nightclub/restaurant BUTTER has a food van that goes around to the owner’s various nightspots like the marquee club for example and feeds the late night masses. they serve kobe beef hotdogs and paninis and stuff...

Looking for a good dinner reccommendation for a dinner with a younger client. Thinking about something fun/sceney but must have great food. A few that come to mind are Esca, Veritas, Alto, Blue hill, Craft, Cru, Megu, Kobe Club...

I think Buddakan is just gorgeous, with good food and in the very trendy Meatpacking/Chelsea area. Kobe Club is supposed to be quite impressive, with samurai swords hanging from the ceiling, but has not gotten stellar reviews,...

's – sports bar, but amazing Kobe Beef burgers and Guiness on draught There is a club called 1048 in Cloverdale. Sunday night they have a great jazz band. A good place after dinner. Sometimes they BBQ but I haven’t...

" expensive, that can accomodate a group. I thought about Kobe Club or Quality Meats, but I’m yet to be sold on either. Does anyone else have any good ideas in that range? I appreciate any feedback. Thanks.

Kobe Club - scene, steaks, swords and S&M decor.

have better luck than us. If you want to try something else, Ola on the beach was great, so was Azul. For a really wonderful (but pricey) experience, try Kobe Club (Next to China Grill). The place is tiny but really...

's been around for years though so it may not qualify as “in/trendy” anymore. Same with China Grill. I wouldn’t rule out Talula, Table 8 or Sardinia. Love Nobu but not sure that works for business. Two new places...

I love Osteria Romana on Espanola Way (off Washington Avenue around 15th Street) for casual fare – lively street atmosphere and even some fun shopping! For a nice dinner how do you feel about beef? Kobe Club is REALLY cool...

I went to Butterfield 8 on bedford the other night and it was pretty bad in an odd way. When I first started eating i thought the food was ok – by the middle i wasnt sure and after I left i hated it. We started with the...

"I guess it’s just too tough for a place like that to survive in the current market." ~~~~~~~ no doubt. another indication – Jeffrey Chodorow’s place Kobe Club is closing tomorrow.

to spend lots of money. I went to Tuscan steak once and while the food was solid, it didn’t do anything to inspire me. Good food, but left me underwhelmed for the price. Kobe Club has a summer menu as well, btw, and I think...

I would suggest Craft, BLT Steak or BLT Prime, Nobu or Kobe Club if you want a good bit of trendy/ celebrity-ish with good food. Buddakan as well, although I have not been or any of the Blue Ribbon resturants.

. - Kobe Club- I love the private little tables they give, but again, I’d go for a different kind of food...and this is really ridiculously pricey. Any other ideas are strongly welcomed!! Please, help!
