"Westword’s Gretchen Kurtz finds decadence, fantasy, and nostalgia in her meals at Radek Cerny’s Atelier by Radex. The restaurant, situated in the original home of Il Posto in City Park West, is a love letter to his “decades that paved the way for today’s earnest food scene.” White tablecloths, candle-lit tables, and whimsically served entrees are all a part of the draw of Cerny’s latest endeavor. A “conversation-stopping” lobster ravioli, “TV dinners” in the form of creamy citrus-tinged risottos, “lobster tail and shrimp scampi bobbing in butter,” and delicately dressed salads all make their appearance. One of Atelier’s more notable items is “the most expensive dessert you’ve likely ordered” and an opportunity to see Cerny’s creativity run free — a $25 dish consisting of two chocolate-cast ducks filled with a lemon curd and served with fresh fruit, ice cream, Chantilly, and crème anglaise. Kurtz hopes Cerny will pull from his decades of experience to bring even more to the table." - Nisa Sedaghat
