"If you need caviar and truffles, Raon will deliver. The polished, 14-seat spot on the southern border of the Upper East Side is predictable in that way. But the predictability goes a little too far with a 10-course tasting that sticks to a familiar game plan. We're talking little Korean bites with French influence served on impractically large plates. Kimchi, in one form or another, is incorporated into most of the dishes, which adds a fun twist, but there isn't much here to get your heart racing. That said, you're guaranteed to enjoy your foie gras dumpling." - bryan kim, willa moore, neha talreja, molly fitzpatrick, will hartman
