The stylish Ace hotel scored big when the industrious Chef Patrick Kriss moved into the ground level. The restaurant is a cool mix of dark brick floors, sleek wood finishes and large windows that usher in radiant beams of sunlight. And true to everything that the Alo Food Group does, expect a serious kitchen brigade and equally serious cooking. There’s a lot to like on this Mediterranean menu, beginning with hamachi with pecan salsa macha and moving on to octopus with crispy potato and romesco. For dessert, dark chocolate coconut sorbet with caramelized banana is a perfect ending.
