Just beyond the ultramodern lobby of this sleek boutique hotel, 17's dining room offers oversized white leather chairs, vibrant red brocade walls, glittering chandeliers and patterned wood flooring. Leather banquettes and tables are appropriately spaced and lighting is conducive to intimate dining. Executive Chef Wes Morton utilizes locally sourced and seasonal ingredients to create the menu. Highlights include spring pea and buttermilk soup, duck foie gras, pan-seared ahi tuna, prime New York strip and even truffled mac and cheese. Be sure to sample one of the artful desserts, created…

My new favorite spot!

by Sv

I heard and read a lot about the Alden and the *17 . Finally I made arrangements to take some friends for dinner for my BDay! I couldn't choose a better place! So beautiful and romantic! It is shocking how beautiful it is! I had the snapper, my friend had the rib eye-can't express myself to say how delicious the food was! I learned that all the food is right from the market-to the grill and to the table! Fresh, homemade and absolutely outstanding presentation! The service was impeccable! We will definitely go back and recommend it to all of our friends! You NEED to try it!!!

Amazing!

by Phil123123

My wife and I finally decided to check out this restaurant after hearing from our friends how good it is. They were right! We had tickets to go to see "Rock of Ages" and wanted to get something to eat prior to the show. We chose 17 since they provide a shuttle service to the theater. As soon as we walked in we were impressed. The restaurant is gorgeous. Our waiter was Tony and he took great care of us. Attentive but not overpowering. He made great suggestions with the food. We had a wonderful dinner and got to our show with plenty of time. We will definitely be coming back!

Just okay

by JRPR

My spouse and I went for New Year's Eve and were disappointed. There was a prefixed menu with two choices for each course. My spouse and I ordered one of each so we could try everything. The food was just okay and our server was forgetful. A gratuity of 20% was added to our meal (for a party of 2 who received just okay service) so we ended up with a over $240 dollar meal.
