Mandarin Oriental, New York
Upper West Side, Manhattan, New York CityIts delicious Asian cuisine is critically lauded in New York magazine but also quite expensive -- a simple breakfast for two can cost as much as $70. Then again, so few breakfasts come with an amuse-bouche in the form of a tasty, blueberry smoothie shooter. For dinner, the restaurant offers only prix-fixe menus. The three-course prix fixe is $85, and the full, eight-course tasting menu is $125.
