I traveled down with friends to Tribeca on Saturday May 17th for the "Taste of Tribeca:" street fair. Afterwards we walked around the Tribeca neighborhood, and then stopped in for an early dinner at Tribeca Grill. I haven't read much about the restaurant recently, and am not predisposed to like places with celebrity connections. Having said that, I really enjoyed our dinner. The room has a warm, downtown feeling, and while it got somewhat noisy at times, we could all hear each other at the table. The food was good and ample. I started with the Seared Tuna with Sesame Noodles, and others at our table tried the Warm Spring Asparagus Salad, and Jumbo Lump crabcake. All were quite good. For mains we ordered the Garganelli with Short Rib Bolognese, Seared Sea Scallops with Morels, and Long Island Duck Breast. Each exceeded expectations. The wine list was very substantial, and the sommelier was helpful in helping us navigate to some good choices that were not too pricey. It all made for a very pleasant trip to an area and restaurant that was off our radar screen.
Pros: Good food & wine list. Accommodating service.
Cons: A bit of a hike for everyone except downtowners.
