PLEASE NOTE: L'Espalier moved to its new home on the second floor of the Mandarin Oriental on Boylston Street.

UPDATE: L'Espalier opened its doors at 774 Boylston Street for dinner at 5:30 p.m. Friday, Sept. 12.
Fearlessly led by Frank McClelland, one of the top 25 chefs in the nation according to Food and Wine, L'Espalier is as good as it gets. And it gets good. Ascend the narrow staircase into the first of L'Espalier's 2 classically-decorated dining rooms (get a table in the more modern upper dining room if you can) and prepare yourself for high-class French food, catering to no less than serious eaters with serious finances; this is one place that'll get you psyched for Parents Weekend. The menu is a standard three-course prix-fixe for $75: spanning a wealth of tastes, from foie gras to Hawaiian red snapper to grilled lamb, the seasonal selection is substantially varied and guaranteed to delight every palate (course if that isn't enough, there's always the 6-course Degustation Menu for $95; $135 and up with paired wines). But perhaps the best thing L'Espalier has to offer: their special events, like “cheese Tuesdays,” a 4-course dinner with matching wines and a grand cheese sampler, all led by the restaurant's top cheese and wine meisters for a bargain $55.

Afternoon tea: There are two tea service choices offered: 'Make Way For The Ducklings' ($27) - your choice of tea plus a selection of petit fours and pastries - and 'Red Riding Hood's Basket' ($36), which adds tea sandwiches and canapes. For 15 dollars further, a glass of fine champagne can be served with either. Vegetarian substitutions can be requested. The tea choice is a typical 8 or so varieties and your cup is refilled from teapots carried by the staff rather than leaving them on your table. The accompanying food includes lobster salad, cucumber and cream cheese sandwich, strawberry terrine and the classic L'Espalier swan.

“Contrary to popular belief, not all Mexican food is hot and spicy,” the menu notes. Nor is it greasy and full of cheese. With dishes and ambiance straight out of the food flick “Like Water for Chocolate,” Casa Romero serves up first class authentic Mexican food in a dimly lit basement setting. Start with the soft and gooey chile relleno ($8.50), stuffed with cheese and topped with sour cream and a tomato-chipotle sauce. The Mexico City style enchiladas ($12.50) with cactus, marinated onions, and feta cheese are among the most delicious and unusual delights on the menu. Most of the meat and chicken appetizers and entrees are well-prepared and delicious, although portions tend to be small. No authentic Mexican meal would be complete without the customary flan ($4). While their version is light and tasty, a better bet is the mud pie, a rich concoction of chocolate, raspberries and caramel. Entrees $12-18.
