“Anthos”

Occasion:	Cuisine:	Area:	Cost:	Rating:
Night Out	Greek	Midtown	Break the Bank	Good

$44, and several appetizers are $18. It’s a plain fact that Michael is a very talented chef, and he’s also someone who’s got so much passion for what he does, and so much genuine enthusiasm for the ingredients that he works with, that eating his food can be a true joy. That kind of love for what you do comes through in the cooking for sure. But there’s also something about shelling out that kind of money for food that’s not quite hitting the mark in a room lacking inspiration that doesn’t quite sit well with me. I’d thought that it was the sting of comparison to Dona that had me disappointed, but now that I really think about it, I don’t think that’s it. More likely, it’s that Anthos, in and of itself, is a work in progress, and one that still needs some time to grow into what it will eventually be.

Anthos is located at 36 West 52nd Street between 5th and 6th Avenues, 212-582-6900.
