Three of us had the $70 set menu washed down with a nice bottle of Avignonesi Nobile plus some beers for one of us. Splendid antipasti - fresh squid, pate, olives and grissini - followed by wonderful homemade pasta and duck ragu. For secondi, we tried each of the 3 choices. The guinea fowl was superb, as was the bass... more
The $70 fixed price menu includes several appetizers, choices among three options in each of two following courses, a cheese course, and dessert. Best appetizer was squash blossom with a delicate crust that would shame a first-rate tempura chef stuffed with cheese and anchovies. In the next course, small duck-filled raviolis were served in an excellent broth. The pompano with... more
A recent celebratory meal at Obelisk was perfect. The food was delicious and, best of all, interesting. The service was attentive but not overbearing. The ambience is casual, but refined. Compared to similar restaurants (i.e., Komi, which also is excellent), it's a good value. Warning to first-time diners: We finished all of the many appetizers and could not eat all... more

Our food experience with Obelisk was great. The appetizers and bread were like none other for a place in this price range. The entrees, cheese course and desert were nice as well. The only problem we had was the one asian waitress who kind of threw our entree on the table and walked away. I expected her to explain the... more
The food kept coming and coming. Loved all the little dishes and surprises. Wagyu beef was the best beef I've ever had. Loved the cheese courses. Knowledgeable and attentive service. Decor was a little dull and in need of updating, but the food was so good, I really didn't care. I could have eaten in a cave and wouldn't have... more
Intimate quaint atmosphere - great wine and innovative food more
Very good, but a little too much food for a 3-course menu. Great dining experience. more
Excellent food and service. Allow for at least 3 hours to enjoy every course and digestion. more
It's perfect for a romantic night out where people will actually treat you as a valued customer. more
