The cuisine at Solo features a unique alchemy of exotic Mediterranean fare accentuated with an Asian rub, resulting in distinctive kosher fare unavailable anywhere. The main dining room, decorated by famed designer Edward Jacobs, has integrated into its design, modular partitioning permitting various private seating configurations for all manner of business and privacy fiunctions. Inbuilt are plasma monitors and computer and DVD connectivity, allowing for a mix of presentation needs.

An exciting feature of Solo, is its exclusive Club Room; a private dining room with a seating capacity of up to 20, physically and visually connected to the kitchen, allowing you to dine with the chef. It is here that members will relinquish a traditional menu for a daring and personalized tasting menu inspired by the daily market of signature dishes with the creative genius of executive Chef Hok Chin. Chef Chin has worked in many of the worlds finest restaurants and has now taken that knowledge into the kosher culinary world. Other restaurant specialties include a five course meal accompanied by wine parings specially selected by their sommelier. Outside the atrium, a Kosher Kiosk dispenses Danish and cinnamon buns baked by Swedish pastry chef Morgan Larsson.

The restaurant has received rave reviews from both patrons and critics alike. The restaurant, which opened in June 2004 was too new for the Zagat rankings, yet the 2005 Survey does state: “Haute Mediterranean cuisine that's glatt kosher is the concept at this ambitious new Midtowner from the owner of Prime Grill [Joey Allaham]; offering artfully presented entrees, tasting menus and raw-fish selections in an upscale setting, it's already a hit with deep-pocketed machers who prefer to go in groups, i.e. not solo.”

For that all-important business meeting or for that special night out, Solo is an excellent choice. And since the restaurant is sometimes frequented by the occasional celebrity, politician or sports star you might need to call N.Y. Post’s Page Six.
