Editorial Review for Petrossian Cafe & Boutique – by Kat Kinsman
The Scene
Want some bling-bling with your blini? This Columbus Circle caviarteria supreme has seafood swank to spare. The boutique purveys the same succulent smoked fish by which the ridiculously luxe restaurant claims its fame, and similarly doesn't skimp on the accompanying upscale chill. This shop isn't for the easily intimidated, but what did you expect? You're buying caviar, not chopped liver.
The Food
The shop boasts a truly decadent selection of foie gras, pate, pastries, savories and other pricey delights, but still, the real standout is Petrossian's trademark smoked salmon. The silky, sumptuous cuts and king's-ransom caviar are what has kept decades of New Yorkers in hock. But fish heads on a budget know to nip into the shop's cafe for a surprisingly reasonably priced light lunch.

My wife set up a dinner party for 30 or so foreign gov't officials. They were able to seat us all comfortably, and the service was great. I wish the food was as good as the service.
Pros: Great location, ambience
Cons: Food not up to par

Great place a bit pricy, but well worth it. Order Apps first and dont even bother with Main Course. You have to try double Choc cake
